For me personally, I've always chosen simplistic power over complicated power, since that always appeals to a broader base of people.

But yea, I like thinking about fun ways to sort of nestle/hide away extra configuration options. Its one of the design changes in the upcoming PB actually

Cool.

I would take pressing a single key, which is bound in Warcraft to a macro which focuses Toon A, and having the software switch to the Region that Toon A is in also on that hotkey is the simpler approach.
Either way, you have a hotkey to switch Regions and a hotkey for the setting the new toon as everyone's Focus target.

Having the keybinds sync up, is simpler imo.
Press one button, and both the region swaps and the toon in the new region is the party leader/focus/target of all the others.

Having to press one key instead of two sounds more simple to me, but only if it works reliable ofc..

For now I'll go with the method mentioned by Tim, ty for the explanation.
