Back to the actual question posed, I recall there being some relation to the interruption of spells, and the ability to sit through long casting, and effectively perma-med. I recall a thread from the devs that discussed their disinterest in giving players a means to interrupt their casting, but the necessity of preventing the perma-med potential being greater than the "cost" of allowing players to interrupt their spells.
I believe this applied to spells cast by items, e.g. deepwater helm. You could click the hat, sit down until the bar was almost done casting, then stand back up again and it would finish its cast.

I don't recall that working for spells cast from the bar though.
