Attacked self after casting heal spell

Was running nekkid to pick up my death pile in Orc Barracks.  Was attacking an orc (punching), cast mend on myself, and when I hit "a" to re-attack, I attacked myself.  Got a cloud for doing it too :)

Healing spells are changing the target to "self" and then A is engaging on that target.

The C command works in a similar fashion, but the upside to it is, it's tracking the last spell used, not the last combat spell used, so it's at least not trying to kill you when it recasts the spell.
