Post Request: SPELL_AURA_REFRESH or APPLIED_DOSE update

so for example warlock casts fear on Kobold Miner
at first it fires SPELL_AURA_APPLIED on initial fear but if warlock wants to refresh his fear nothing but SPELL_CAST_START
and the same with any debuff/buff

workarounds is possible ofc, like storing target GUID via UnitGUID on SPELL_CAST_SUCCESS and _START and then register UNIT_SPELLCAST_SUCCEDED, but they are quite complicated and ugly, described way only works if you're casting on your target, not focus or mouseover, and hardly possible for party/raid debuffs
well i can't figure out the easy and good way to make flawless debuff/buff monitor without AURA_REFRESH event type.
dunno why it's not implemented, at least as part of APPLIED_DOSE with amount arg set to 0
