Multiple outgoing actions

I keep finding I want some button to send a midi signal AND start a timer, or do one thing and then do something else. Yes i can make 2 triggers for this, but then if i want to change the input, i have to change 2 things. This might be too different from existing paradigm, but it would be nice to be able to assign multiple outgoing actions or a sequence to a single incoming trigger in the same place.

Additionally, there are several cases where I want to change outgoing actions based on rules. Again, might be too fundamental, but food for thought
e.g.

g2 is set somewhere else

on some midi button trigger, i want:
if g2==0 then send key F
if g2==1 then send key G
if g2==2 then send key H

so today I have rules coded to that midi button for each key that read like this

Midi B1 4A pp, if g0!=0 then exit rules, skip Outgoing Action, Keystroke: F
Midi B1 4A pp, if g0!=1 then exit rules, skip Outgoing Action, Keystroke: G
Midi B1 4A pp, if g0!=2 then exit rules, skip Outgoing Action, Keystroke: H
etc...

Is that the way to go about it?

yes, excellent proposal and already on our "we definitely want this!!!" list.
