It's not a macro or anything prohibited but it certain fits the definition of an exploit. I don't like it because it is a method of synthetically watering down the game. Imagine if three or four of these tricks existed that weren't technically banned but made it easier to play. Cool trick that was found but bad for the game overall.

I just tested it out, and it is a macro, not just a simple rebinding.

Steps for a Razer keyboard:

1. Create a macro with the steps
- Left-click down
- Left-click up
2. Assign the macro to a key
3. Set playback option for the key to be "Play while assigned key is pressed."

Unless there's another way to make holding down the left mouse button (or it's equivalent) click repeatedly, this is a macro that replays the keystrokes repeatedly. Isn't that already illegal, but Blizzard's rules? This isn't just a "rebinding." If you do a simple rebinding to something other than say, the scroll wheel, the effect should be exactly the same as it used to be, with no benefits.
