A lot of the time I find myself using script actions in component event handlers simply because I can copy and paste the script to other components, even for simple things like opening a popup.  
It would be super handy to be able to copy specific actions or indeed multiple actions and paste them to other components.

Please, why isn't this already a thing. Here I am creating the same component event for 100 different components.

I really wish I would never use non-script actions... Copying Popup actions is an absolute pain without a copy/paste for the whole action
