I explored this potential solution for it ... introduce an "Actions" tab within the Applications section in System Settings.
Here's a prototype for it (An example application):
https://github.com/elementary/quick-settings/assets/76487753/66631d10-92ae-4363-b18b-42ddb1bab7b8
System Settings > Applications > Actions Tab
I'd love to hear your thoughts or feedback on this!
Problem
There’s a demand for folks to be able to quickly access certain app actions as we’ve seen with the old systray/indicators. We should have a way for folks to be able to have quick access to their most commonly used actions even for apps that aren’t pinned to the dock and without having to search
Proposal
There should be the ability to add any action from any app as a custom quick control button in quick settings.
apps can already provide custom icons for actions in their launcher files, so we should have all the information we need
Prior Art (Optional)
On other operating systems like iOS app developers can use app intents to provide controls for quick settings
