Is it safe to execute all actions on startup?

If some of them are bound to a dangerous or any other sensitive action?

Maybe, or maybe not.

As @ES-Alexander said yesterday, it should be opt-in to the user. Will change that.

I understand this is valuable for some applications, but this definitely needs to be opt-in, per Action - someone may program an Action that runs some physical hardware, or even damages part of their vehicle as an emergency stop or something, and we don't want to be arbitrarily running things like that automatically.

Also, is there a reason to restrict this to only JS Actions, instead of allowing it to apply to all of them?

Both things seem solvable with a "run on startup" checkbox column in the Actions manager. It would be nice to include the built in actions there, just without edit buttons (and possibly greyed out to make it obvious they're not changeable).

P.S. sorry - I just found this half-written - realised I didn't finish and submit it this morning as intended 😅

Agree with all. Will do the changes.
