Ability to publish events when "action" is partly set

[kinosang]

For example, a button has "action":{"up":"page 2"} should publish down,release,long,hold,changed instead of omit them.

Or add command to publish MQTT message

Came here to request both of these. I spent way too much time trying to react to events in HA for a button that had an action defined already, and since that doesn't work, the next workaround would be to issue MQTT commands right from an action defined in the JSONL.

Context: I want my prev/home/next buttons to not only change pages but do other things in HA such as reload config

Small displays are usually used in projects, and losing the functionality of publishing MQTT commands/events on objects that have "action" enabled is very bad scenario.

Just ran into this issue today. I'm using "action" to make my elements respond better to button presses. But then I don't get an MQTT message telling me that the element has been pressed.
