Actions are not acceptable for <svelte:body />

Seems, we not able to assign actions to <svelte:body /> element: REPL

The docs are pretty clear that <svelte:body> is only for adding events to document.body.

What would putting an action on <svelte:body> even do (that isn't easily accomplished otherwise)?

[PaulMaly]

@btk5h In Svelte 3 we don't have custom events anymore (events: {} sections in Svelte 2). So, actions are the only way to add a custom event, for example, a group of DOM events (eg. click/touch/etc) or some special stuff like use:enter={callback} which is triggering only on the enter key press.

I think, if <svelte:body> is for adding events, it should apply actions too.

In 3.42.0, you can now use actions on <svelte:body>.
