True, but I believe common practice will be to use <action> when there is more than one contained action. Yes, you can view the collection of actions like a transaction. Collectively, they are the action. However, most authors will think "hmmm.... I need to do this, then that, then... so I need to enclose them in an <actions> tag." The issue is similar to other things too like <choices>, which we have been discussing recently too. If we had used singular <choice> then it would have been very confusing since <choices> is clearly not a choice! Personally, to avoid potential confusion, I prefer <category> since <group> is used elsewhere. From: T. V.
