What I meant by casting feats wasn't using your magic on someone else, like the healing example. There the person doing to magic is still the healer. It's the situation where you effectively give your magic to someone else, such as enabling them to run over treetops.
I just remembered the Issaries rune spell trading from RQ and wondered if Issaries still had something like this. On ST. pg 116 - the Secret for Gultha Goldentongue is "Trade Feats" which implies that it is not something that can be done by just anyone.
