Bard songs in buff windows don't show caster.

    When one is buffed by a normal spell one can look at the buff icon and see who cast it. But with bard songs the caster/singer/player name doesn't show up on the song icon.

    This makes it rather annoying on raids when we have multiple bards and one of them is playing the wrong resist song; we can't see who it is so it's much harder to tell the specific bard "stop playing that song!" or "start playing this song!"

    Please fix. Thanks.

    Bards play resist songs?
    Also, just how many AE (raid-wide beneficial) songs are bards using nowadays? Two?

    But, yeah, I don't believe the short duration buff window shows the caster on the short duration / temporary buffs.

    You can briefly look in your spell spam window to see who is singing the song. But +1 for short duration buffs showing the same level of information as long term buffs.

    One strange thing, short duration buffs on pets show as regular buffs, and thus show the bard singing the song.
