It would be helpful to be able to execute external programs and scripts from within an automation, without having to use a workspace and accompanying engine.

An example use case would be starting long-running batch jobs as part of an automation, without having to block an engine while the external job is running.

In short, something like the SystemCaller but as a native automation action.
