5 - Suggestion for special items check
Currently, if I don't misunderstand, if I check "Disable for Special Items", PetLeash will check those checked special items in my bag, and if it has found any it doesn't automatically summon a companion for me at all.
Take an example, I have a Brewfest Keg Pony in my bag, but I rarely use it, so I uncheck this one for PetLeash to work (or it never summons for me). Someday I'm in a party and want to summon it for a laugh, the "correct" steps should be turning off Auto Summon first then manually use it, something that I likely never remember, so after the pony is summoned by me and a few seconds later PetLeash will summon another companion for me and the pony is gone and on CD, woops.
I know currently there's no API for us to track if a player has already had a companion out, so in the above case PetLeash has no idea there is a pony out. My suggestion is, instead of checking the existence in the bag, before automatic summoning maybe PetLeash could use Targeting functions to check every single special item companion, and if there's any then stops summoning. It's ugly and need to be avoided in combat, but I think in general it could be better than current way? just my opinion.
