What is Riot´s opinion on Skillshot based Autoattacks?

The thought of having Skillshots instead of Autoattacks on a champion came up in my mind recently, and I wanted to ask if Riot ever mentioned anything regarding that topic.

The point of autoattacks is to be as consistent damage as possible, so skillshot autos would probably not happen. It would also be hard to find a mechanic to aim them with. Ezreal and Karthus are probably the closes we're ever going to get to this.

I thought of Karthus Q too when I first thought about having skillshots as autoattacks, but I guess to make a champion with skillshot-based autoattacks you would have to disable the champions autoattack and give him 1 ability which makes 1:1 Autoattack damage, CD Based of attackspeed and no resources to cast.

^Thats what I thought too. Lets Say Yasuo´s Q but for ranged Champions and their autoattack is disabled, thats the closest it could get

That would be retarded, there is a reason why even games that are designed to be click fests like Diablo never ventured into the realm of skill shot AAs.

At least only on the side as an option but not compulsory.
