Tangentially, /doability is for buttons placed on your ability windows (/doa 1-6) like beg, or abilities in the combat window (/doa 7-0) such as slam. In short /doability is not linked to songs.

A problem with setting an 'autosong' button is there is no way to cancel it (afaik) and it will lock you out from using any other chat based hotkeys for the duration of the button.

If you do want to be lazy, your best bet might be to render your songs down to 2 buttons;

Button 1:
/stopsong
/pause n, /cast 1,
/stopsong
/cast 2
(where 'n' is how long you need to allow to cast a song without prematurely ending it)

Button 2:
/stopsong
/pause n, /cast 3,
/stopsong
/cast 4

This way you can make your 4 songs in 2 button presses, but the longest your will be plagued by unwanted /stopsongs from mistimed hotkeys will be 3 seconds

Seems a reasonable compromise to me.

For aggressive AoE songs you might want to make a similar concession too, in order to avoid accidently nuking things.

/stopsong
/pause n, /cast x (where x is the number of the aoe gem and n is 10 times the number of seconds you need to successfully cast)
/stopsong

Basically this will cast your AoE and then automatically stop singing it after it is cast.
