Extension:GuidedTour/API brainstorming

Feel free to brainstorm ideas for improving the API. See 43530.

Current
The supported actions (basically a higher-level way of specifying the behavior of the Okay button) are:


 * next - Go to next step
 * end - End tour

Other properties, such as, could be added to the main object passed in in the future.

Yes, JSON object
The code in the above design is just a JSON structure, which is good as it eliminates the risk of executing arbitrary script

It can't be shoe-horned into the Schema namespace on meta-wiki, but a general JSON namespace is possible.
 * It's not currently JSON. Besides the wrapper call and no double-quoted keys, it is intended to keep allowing inline functions.  This doesn't open any new vectors, since anyone who can currently create a tour can inject arbitrary code through Common.js or an extension.  I'm not ruling out a JSON version in the future, though.
