Description
Including baby forms within action menus is a recurring pattern in Nextcloud and it's one that I think we should break. We shouldn't include forms, especially if they involve multi-selects and pickers, into tiny action menus.
When there's the need of a form we can add an action button that brings up a dialog or opens the form somewhere else.
Having a text input with an inline submit button is probably ok but still not ideal IMO.
In this particular case we have a baby form with a submit button that looks exactly like an action buttons above, creating visual confusion and usability issues. For example here there's no way to guarantee that the picker itself won't block the button to submit the form itself once you've chosen the date. (see screenshot)
This came up in a recent design call and there was some consensus on that we should probably even deprecate these complex action input elements. What do you think @nextcloud/designers ??
