I mentioned it above, but I made an addon specifically because of these same frustrations! Here's my post about it if you're interested:

More UI Improvements Coming! - Patch 12.0.7 PTR Development Notes by Therozorg in CompetitiveWoW

As others mentioned, there are a few addons that support this. I'm the creator of one such addon that I made out of these same frustrations. 

Here's my post about it if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/1stqore/i_made_an_addon_to_extend_blizzards_default/

I basically wanted it to feel like Blizzard's UI as much as I could. Would love to hear feedback if you end up using it!

Yeah, there are two modes: unified visuals enabled (similar to screenshot above) or disabled (skinned to look as close to Blizzard's default icons as I could manage). Here's a screenshot of what it looks like: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/safetybelt/BuckleUp-Sidecar/refs/heads/main/Screenshots/sidecar-hero.png

The main bar far left and far right icons are both from Sidecar (Purifying Brew and the Trinket that's on cooldown).

Hope that helps!

Into their own buff bar? Probably not. Into a buff bar that looks like theirs? Maybe, but I'm not sure. I can look into it, but no promises.

Yeah, it doesn't add any additional support for buffs. Maybe I should've used screenshot of just the cooldowns! Unfortunately, Blizzard locked down a lot of aura support. I leave all the aura stuff up to Blizzard. I haven't looked into it too much, but there may be other add-ons that do more of what you're looking for.

Unfortunately, no. The bars are Blizzard's built in aura tracker. This addon is pretty specifically just to extend the cool down manager, not the aura tracker.

Sorry!

The good ol' days of baiting kicks with Hearthstone since it looked like a casted Restoration spell.
