Ive found this one usefull.  As a noob healer its really helped me to be able to see who's in need of my aid.
Hopefully they'll update it soon so that you be able to tell who's in l.o.s and range as well.

If you download addons from curse I'd really recommend using the clinet. I understand you can get a bit supiouse toward it but it really does help alot, espeially now that the game is new and addons get new uppdates every other day.

Here's a list of a couple of addons I've found useful:

AutoDismount
Very nice addon that automaticlly dismounts you when you try to use an abbility. Has some compability issues with some alter spam mods however.

AlertFilter
With this mod you can filter out any message that splashes on the screen, like "Abbility not ready" and the like. Makes for a cleaner UI and less unnessery spam.

Clock
Simply puts a clock on yout screen. Helpful for remember the time. =p

[DieBuffsDie
Removes the clutter of buffs on the standrad unit framer. If you're not too concerned with what buffs and debuffs your party memebers has you can get this for a cleaner UI.

MetahudUnifFrames
Works as a standard hud. Putting your and your targets health right next to you character so you can have a better overview during in combat.

Mouse Button targeting fix
This is one of the most useful addons and something everyone should get. This makes it alot easier ot target other players in pvp. By default WAR targets the player you mouse over when the mousebutton_up event triggers, this mod will change it to activate on mousebutton_down instead.

Scenario Join All Button
Name explains it all. Makes you able to sing up too all or a set couple of scenarios in one click.

Whiney Spell Timer
An addon useful for keeping track of mutliple dot and hot timers.

Because I maintain two sets of gear for PVP and PVE I've been gagging to get my hands on an equivalent Itemrack style mod for WAR, and I found one.

Works a treat.

I use this addon as well. It is great, for a WAR addon. I wish you could make a macro and get a button-click switch of gear. Well, at least I didn't get that to work.

You can do precisely that. Create item sets, i.e. item set "PvE" and item set "PvP", then make the following macros to switch between them.

/script ClosetGoblin.ActivateSet("PvE")
/script ClosetGoblin.ActivateSet("PvP")

Apparently in future versions you'll be able to define which tactics to slot with each set aswell, that's pretty compelling for me.

Thanks, works now. I don't know what I did wrong. Some spelling problem I guess.

"Squared" unit frames (like "Grid" in Wow): http://war.curse.com/downloads/war-addons/details/squared.aspx
Oops. Just noticed it was already in the list. Apparently the newest version supports a range-check though! (somewhat)

Here's an alternative for scenario queueing, because I haven't used the other one. SuperQueue

... and I posted it elsewhere because I couldn't find this thread at the time. ClosetGoblin for maintaining and easily switching between gear sets. (invaluable)

The item-link would be great, but the sad thing is it needs LibSlash. While LibSlash is nice and grat and simple awesome, the sad thing about LibSlash is that it for some reason changes the defensive target to the players own character after each cast, which is a *major* pain for a healer. Hopefully LibSlash will be soon updated to fix the issue :)

Are you sure this is LibSlash? I have it installed and it doesn't happen to me. Maybe it is in combination with another addon?

Echoing this. isn't Libslash is just a library to make methods available to other addons? I have never experienced this and I use a ton of addons (a fair majority of which make use of Libslash).
