With the recent A* addition, I was thinking and got kind of intrigued by the idea of pathfinding missiles.

The idea is that you could, for instance, click around the corner and the missile will find the best way to reach that point without hitting walls. Naturally, it would have a range similar to what is already available.

Of course, this isn't a high priority, but it could make a fun power. (Both for enemies and heroes. Imagine a wizard that starts attacking you before you've established line of movement.)

While we're at it, homing missiles would be a good power for upper-level enemies.
