I've said it before, and I'll say it again, and it'll probably become a blog post by the end of the day:

This is, above all else, an MMO. Zenimax Online is trying to merge two major fanbases into one game. The MMO players are all out there scrambling to find a game that's better than the average market-driven AAA title. WoW is ruined and the free to play games are actually pretty decent, but mirror the WoW model a little too closely in some respects. We are talking about a TES game, yes, but it's online so things are going to change. If you go into this expecting it to have TES story with TES lore and TES characters with a lot of basic MMO mechanics, you'll be all the happier when it you find something that isn't standard m.o. in the MMO industry. So tab-targetting, sure it makes sense - although I'm pretty sure they said it's going to have a certain amount of line-of-sight targetting. . . at any rate, life will go on if there's a few MMO standards in the game, we're going to need them to make it work right (it is an MMO after all).
