Model Material, if you play storm, is how Living Bomb does its graphic, same with black arrow from Sylvannas.

Yes

    <CActorSite id="StatusBarStabilizer">
        <HostSiteOps Ops="SOpBasicScopePositionFollowHoldRotation SOpStatusBarStabilizer"/>
        <SiteFlags index="RequiresManualKill" value="1"/>
    </CActorSite>

Site Actor, which is then used...

    <CActorUnit default="1" id="StormHeroBase" parent="StormUnitBase">
.

.
        <CustomUnitStatusActor value="StatusBarStabilizer"/>

Forgot to Add

Model Material is hilariously powerful. You can now apply other materials on top of the host.

    <CActorModelMaterial id="ReplacementArthas" parent="ModelAnimationStyleContinuous">
        <MaterialType value="Replacement"/>
    </CActorModelMaterial>

    <CActorModelMaterial id="GlazeStasis" parent="ModelAnimationStyleContinuous">
        <ModelFlags index="AutomateGlobalLoops" value="1"/>
    </CActorModelMaterial>

    <CActorSimple id="GlazeStasisSimple">
        <EditorCategories value=""/>
        <Supporter Subject="_Selectable"/>
        <On Terms="Behavior.OracleStasisTrapTarget.On" Send="Create"/>
        <On Terms="ActorCreation" Target="_Unit" Send="ModelMaterialApply GlazeStasis"/>
        <On Terms="Behavior.OracleStasisTrapTarget.Off" Target="_Unit" Send="ModelMaterialRemove GlazeStasis KillUnapplied"/>
        <On Terms="Behavior.OracleStasisTrapTarget.Off" Send="Destroy"/>
    </CActorSimple>

And to make things even nicer, in the Global Config actor, you can setup which model material wins when multiple are applied

        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="ReplacementArthas"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="ReplacementArthas2"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="ReplacementArthas3"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="ReplacementMuradin"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="ReplacementNova"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="ReplacementNova1"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="ReplacementNova2"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeUnstoppableHoly"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeBlackArrowTangentSpace"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeNovaBaseDecoy"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeRockTangentSpace"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeVinesTangentSpace"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeVinesTangentSpaceTo"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeIceTangentSpace"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeSnowTangentSpace"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeSnowWorldSpace"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeFireTangentSpace"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeFireWorldSpace"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeShadow"/>
        <ModelMaterialPriorityList value="GlazeStasis"/>

Ok, went digging for usages examples

Event Macro Runnable is quite different then what I thought. It permits one to simply create it at an actor, and by doing so, send to that actor all the messages contained within.

    <CActorEventMacroRunnable id="KaelthasStormPunkSilverMacro">
        <Do Send="TextureSelectById Storm_Hero_Kaelthas_StormPunk_Silver_Diff"/>
        <Do Send="TextureSelectById Storm_Hero_Kaelthas_StormPunk_Silver_Emis"/>
        <Do Send="TextureSelectById Storm_Hero_Kaelthas_StormPunk_Silver_Spec"/>
    </CActorEventMacroRunnable>

In this case, it is created via Skin data and does the texture swapping in Storm for skins.

Overrides lets you override the model animations and apply custom animation blends at will.

    <CActorOverrides id="RehgarModelAnimationOverrides">
        <ModelOverrides>
            <Model value="RehgarGhostWolf"/>
            <Transition From="Walk,A" To="Walk,Left" Blend="10.000000"/>
            <Transition From="Walk,A" To="Walk,Right" Blend="10.000000"/>
            <Transition From="Walk,Left" To="Walk,A" Blend="10.000000"/>
            <Transition From="Walk,Right" To="Walk,A" Blend="10.000000"/>
            <Transition From="Walk,Right" To="Walk,Left" Blend="10.000000"/>
            <Transition From="Walk,Left" Blend="10.000000"/>
        </ModelOverrides>
    </CActorOverrides>

This changes Reghars animation blends considerably,

Delta Sums is the relative position actor I think you wanted

    <!-- Status Bar                                                                              -->
    <CActorSiteOpDeltaSum id="SOpStatusBarStabilizer">
        <Deltas Subject="MountModel">
            <AttachQuerySource Methods="Origin"/>
            <AttachQueryTarget Methods="Overhead"/>
        </Deltas>
        <Deltas Subject="_Selectable">
            <AttachQuerySource Methods="Origin"/>
            <AttachQueryTarget Methods="Overhead"/>
        </Deltas>
        <DeltaSumFlags index="ZOffsetOnly" value="1"/>
    </CActorSiteOpDeltaSum>

From here we can see that adding the second host adds its delta between the attach points to the overall offset. Thus preserving the status bar height, mount or no mount.

After exploring the galaxy header files, I discovered more Actors and Siteops. Will have them each in their own section, along with my speculation of each.

Actors

ModelMaterial - Possibly define a model material for dynamic squib impacts

ForceLineSegment - Force that is one direction only?

EventMacroRunnable - Possibly allows actor events to be added at run time to actors

Overrides - Possibly allows actor events to be changed at run time?

SiteOrbiter (like Rocker) - Like rocker, but for orbiting about an object.

Site Ops

Orbiter - This is mostly for convenience, since this can be duplicated (badly) by a mix of offsets and rotators.

GameCameraFollow - Possibly quite useful to make something stay on screen at all times.

DeltaSum - Unknown

PersistentOffset

Tether - Possibly a variable local offset (can get up to a certain distance from the host)?

Tilter - Not sure.
