A largely unrelated quetion to Gurth's conumdrum but...

If detect (enemys) is possible, is slaughter (enemys) or a specific target
manaball for enemys applying the Restricted Target modifier from MITS?

I mean this in a purely acidemic sense; even if the spell could exist it
basicly would wipe out any need for reducing the area effect of a spell and
I can see it deeply unbalancing the game and would not allow it. But
theoretically, can it be done?
