"Whats your take on using magic to attack? You know, having a flickering blade feat and using it offensively as say a ranged magical attack?"
As to whether you should let players use magic as the active ability to attack someone or something, the answer is a resounding YES! Provided the action seems to fit the name and the character can use the ability actively let 'em do it.
Cheers,
Ash
