I just don't know that I think this is true. The XML may be undocumented but at least it is structured and declarative. In terms of how the workflow editor works, job collection, etc.. it seems we can be a lot smarter about output actions. It feels like tool provided metadata should be the fallback (despite me knowing a lot more about it and such).

Are these the actions this refers to ? https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/dev/schema.html#tool-outputs-data-actions

That is such a wonderful sentence ;).
So let's just remove my sentence about the tool provided metadata.

For #12724 I tried to understand output actions. Have to admit that even after studying the code I have no idea (that goes beyond the examples in the docs) what they are doing .. also they seem overly complex. Maybe this bit of added documentation is a small step forward ... But I also added a statement that tool provided metadata should be used instead (which is undocumented to a similar extent).
