Tap Automagic notification (not button) to execute an action

I'd like to put in a request for attaching an user defined action when an Automagic notification is tapped.

Current, as I understand, you can only make Automagic execute an action in a notification if you attach it to a text button. If the whole notification is tapped the Automagic script that created the notification will show up on screen.

We have this already. Use trigger Notification on Statusbar Selected - trigger on notification from action, choose the ID of the notification you have created before.
The flow which has this trigger must be enabled, so it can react to the tap.

You can also choose create own notification, where the notification will be created when the flow is enabled. This is useful for flow that you need to enable for a short period and you want to use notification "tap to disable the flow".

Even though this can be done with a trigger, it would still be nice (simpler and cleaner) to be able to do it in the notification on status bar action. It would simply mean adding an option for action to perform when selecting the notification similar to the ability to add buttons to the notification. I guess it comes down to whether the added simplicity is worth the slightly extra complexity of having oneore option in the action. I obviously think so, and so this is my +1 for the option with acknowledgement of the existing ability to do it via the trigger method.
