I Agree - if you need more than one extra task or you happen to use ALL of the buttons ;)

if you only need one i just use the Default Button and rename it after download

but how would Cook know if you know what task to perform?
- Does it need to validate anything
- what task does it call?

perhaps we could suggest the following
- ability to name the button label such as "Add New"
- allow more than one of the same type

perhaps just basic markers could be included in the code
such as
default_button{
// The current code for default button
....
.....
}
default_task2{
// BASIC BUTTON FUNCTIONALITY
// PLACE YOUR CUSTOM CODE HERE
}

You can then simply call some function in your fork files

Hi,
The custom task can be as simple as entering the url.

For example, On the categories page, I want to have a custom button which drills down to all the content of a specific category selected in the table.

Added this monday.

@vivek, this new feature do not include the URL redirection.
You need to write your URL manually in the redirection after the task execution. (can be empty execution and step directly in the redirection)
Coding is now a piece of cake
