Vitrage

Support External Actions

Registered by Ifat Afek

Currently, Vitrage templates support the following actions: raise alarm, set state, mark causal relationship, and mark-down.
The implementation of mark-down is patchy (update a property on the vertex and call the notifier).

We need a way to define in the template an external action that should be taken. One example is the mark-down. Another example is to execute a Mistral workflow or a Congress policy.
