Details
There are times when a user action in a messaging system surface might trigger a message to show on a different surface. For example, the upcoming onboarding set up checklist experiment in bug 1907948. In this experiment, clicking the last primary CTA in the about:welcome onboarding flow should trigger a feature callout to appear anchored to the "Finish Setup" toolbar button. While there is a potential workaround for handling this case without a new special message action, this capability may be useful in other cases as well.
This bug is to explore options for adding a special message action that sends a trigger message for a configured id (in the case of bug 1907948, the id would be "featureCalloutCheck").
Message targeting often includes a check for !activeNotifications, so this would need to be accounted for to ensure the presence of the message triggering a subsequent message doesn't prevent the latter from appearing. We would also need to make assumptions about the current browser and potentially provide the ability to configure the context.
