I have not considered sequencing actions, but I did define the option that when extending an action, the addtional bindings can be pre-, post- or replace. (Depending on the action security level, so an aircraft or add-on can’t eg replace the ‘pause’ binding…)

I think pre- and post- bindings should cover the use cases I envisage, but if you have a concrete one that needs true sequencing, let’s hear it. Since one obvious binding is to run some Nasal, I’d guess that would be one easy sequencing mechanism, of course.

Kind regards,
James
