Action handlers

Hi,

Gmail supports actions in emails (
https://developers.google.com/gmail/markup/actions/declaring-actions). I've
noticed that they use an actionHandler (or just handler?) property instead
of a target on an Action to provide details about how to perform an HTTP
request. This seems to be an extension of the Schema.org namespace; I've
searched for more details, without finding much. Seems like it was
discussed originally (
https://www.w3.org/wiki/images/b/b9/Actionsinschema.org.pdf,
https://www.w3.org/wiki/images/7/79/Schema.orgActionsMinimaldraft.pdf), but
didn't make it. I haven't been able to find any discussions about not
including it either.

I have been looking at Hydra recently too, but struggled with the lack of
documentation/tooling (refs https://github.com/libero/libero/issues/153).
These seem to overlap quite a bit, was it dropped in favour?

Thanks,
Chris
