Q: Does HealCrafter account for talents affecting stats such as +Heal, Mana Regen (in and out of the FSR), heal size, etc?

A:  Yes, HealCrafter accounts for every passive talent for the character you loaded from the armory.  It cannot account for talents like Inner Focus which is highly dependent on how it's used.

Q: Can I modify my talents?
A:  No, not at this time.  Healcrafter may support this in the future.

Q: Can HealCrafter compare two pieces of gear even if I don't currently have either of them?
A: Yes. Load your character from the armory, or file.  Equip the first piece of gear on the compare character.  Use the "<<<" button to copy the compare character to the current character.  Equip the second piece of gear on the compare character.
