new /target bug

It would appear if you have a macro that is supposed to target something specific, eg. "/target a thing", if it doesn't find the thing it's trying to target, subsequent successful things you try to target using "/target" will show as being targeted on your client, but will not actually be targeted, a bug I'm calling "ghost targeting".

You can't attack or cast on your target and /assisting the person who has the ghost target will not do anything. It's as if the client thinks you're targeting something but the server thinks you aren't. This is a new bug, as old triggers for /target that worked before are no longer working (eg, unbound shadow /target macros to help with targeting the right mobs in priority of what to kill first in the fight just bug out now .. but even if you have it split up into separate macros pressed at different times instead of all in one macro it still fails)

If you use non-macro targeting methods (target nearest, cycle target, target self and then target last target, etc.), that works after this bug occurs, but if you use /target again you'll run into this issue again.

Should be very consistently reproducible.
