Isn't this just the same as enemy? What's different?

I'm not running into RvR to show it properly, so here it is in IC targeting friendlies instead of enemies. Pretend you are order marking up destro when watching this:

Just target or mouse-over "enemy" players (friendly in this demo) and it automatically marks them with the career icon. It will ignore anything that is not an enemy player.

Oh okay so it's to identify certain classes that might be a target priority? That's actually pretty good.

Yep that's the main purpose of it
. Probably best to turn it off for ORvR but for cities and scenarios it can become very useful as it's easier to visually keep track of the icons.

I would like to make a suggestion, though I don't know if it is possible. Is it possible to grey out the class icon for dead enemies?

Hey, not automatically. The UI doesn't get any info like that about any enemies not currently targeted, so it would only work for the enemy you had targeted as well as any who were dead when you put your mouse cursor over.
The other far more convoluted way would be to keep track of the enemy names with the markers and then parse the kill feed to determine who had been killed, but then this would not identify people who then got ressed.

Ok, got it. Thanks again for this addon, it is really helpful!
