[Feature] Dismiss possibility for Totems & Earth Elemental

Describe the feature
There is actually no option to dismiss totems or earth elemental with right click - like in default wow interface. We need that for like skips ...
Describe the implementation
Right click on icon.
This isn't currently implemented due to technical limitations.
To dismiss a Totem via clicking on the frame, you need to perform a "Secure" action, which requires making the frame itself "Secure".
This can be achieved rather easily, but whenever you make a frame "Secure", you get limited in what you are allowed to do to the frame whilst in combat as it becomes "Protected".
Due to me using Cell as a framework of sorts, I'm utilizing frames that aren't designed to be used in a protected way. And as such you would need to do some "dirty" implementations to get this to work without tainting.
I did play around with it and the only way to make it work was to essentially always have the frames shown in combat and then reducing the alpha to 0 as a way to hide them safely.
This however means that they will still eat mouseover, eg. not be clickthrough, and you would then have invisible frames that would block everything behind it.
I decided that this was very unintuitive behaviour and shipped without this option.
If there is a want for this feature, with said caveat I could re-implement it, but ideally I'd have to see if there were any better solutions, which isn't high priority right now.
