       Body:
I see a problem here in using the ActionTag for too many things. This could turn into the PropertyTag of WW1.x :-)

I originally started with the idea of adding this property to the ActionTag, but thought it would be better to have the ActionTag for one thing and the ActionComponentTag for the other, to be clear as to what you're expecting (one has output, the other doesn't).

Description:
The ActionTag does not execute its view, so you cannot use them to create custom components on a web page. The ActionComponentTag would work like the ActionTag for finding and executing an Action, but would also execute the result of the Action, allowing it to render its view.
