Juju Actions - Use Cases

[Jeff Pihach]

Hi John,

One which I haven't seen brought up yet is accessing a url. For example,
when you deploy the Ghost blogging platform charm you need to visit a
special url in order to create your account the first time. At the
moment that means reading the readme to know that you have to do this. I
would really like to have the ability to click on the service icon in
the GUI and be given options like 'Visit create account page' and 'Visit
blog url'. The interesting part of these interactions vs the ones I've
seen mentioned is that they are client side actions. They would open a
new tab or the browser to display the page in question vs simply
executing some backend script.
