I was just looking at some aspects of actions in schema.org

I noticed that actions can have a status with belongs to ActionStatusType, an 
enumeration with three members - ActiveActionStatus, CompletedActionStatus, 
and PotentialActionStatus.

It seems to me that the active and completed status is for particular actions, 
e.g., playing a piece of music on my laptop.  Potential status appears to be 
better suited for action types, e.g., playing a piece of music for whoever 
requests it, and not for particular actions.  This appears to be a mismatch to me.

Similarly, potential actions on things appear to be action types, not actions.


How are these issues resolved?
