Announcement Macros with Recharge Icon?

I know you can make some very basic macros in this game, but is there any way to keep a power icon so you can see the associated recharge/activation status?

E.g. I want to announce that I've used a defensive cooldown to team, but I want that spot on my bar to still show proper recharge.

No, not directly, but by virtue of activating the power via a macro the icon for that power will go through the recharge animation so you can see when it is ready. Obviously this requires you to have both the macro and the power in question in a visible tray somewhere.

Or you can use a bind, which removes the need for another tray slot, but the same limitations apply.
