disable Stock Buff Icons only for added auras

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:

I only want some of the HoTs I cast as a healer to have special ERF positions. Currently this means I see HoTs duplicated.

Describe the solution you'd like to see implemented:

A checkbox like "Hide stock buffs for auras on watch list". So if I add Rejuvenation to the Top-Left aura watch list, Rejuvenations will no longer appear in the default blizzard bottom right list of buffs but the rest will.

Describe alternatives you've considered:

Using the existing "Stock Buff Icons" checkbox and unchecking it. The problem with this is that there are a lot of "minor" buffs that I want to see but it's not important that they have their own dedicated position (and my preferred wide and short raid frames don't have room for all 9 of the positions to be used without making the icons super tiny).

Additional context:

I'm wanting Rejuvenation, Rejuvenation (Germination), Lifebloom, Wild Growth, and Regrowth to have their own special position using the ERF system. And I want all the other "rarer" buffs to be shown in the vanilla blizzard way on the bottom right like Innervate, Barkskin, Tranquility, TWW's 4-piece druid "Insurance!" buff, as well as the out-of-combat Mark of the Wild and Symbiotic Relationship buffs.

I empathize with your request, but unfortunately this isn't possible, at least not without a significant amount of hacking and re-implementation of core functionality. The stock buff and debuff functionality is not adjustable in real-time by Enhanced Raid Frames. The logic for determining what and when icons appear for the stock buff/debuff/dispel frames is all-or-nothing, and the best we can do is hide or move these frames holistically, but not actually alter what content they show. Unfortunately addons don't have the ability to inject custom logic into the built-in elements, which is why Enhanced Raid Frames implements its own aura icons as an overlay on top of the raid frames.

Other bad news is that I don't play WoW anymore, and I haven't for many months. The work I've been doing is to just keep the lights on, so-to-speak, as new patches are released. Sorry if this isn't the the answer you were hoping for. Cheers.

Understandable, thanks for the reply.
