For real world scenarios, there are limits though:

a) there are no actions for actions which require mouse input

b) pcb tries to play smart and exits right away if it thinks an action 
is not appropriate for a specific HID. E.g. this prevents my bash 
script to print the flip side of a layout with a vanilla pcb binary.
