Comment (by jeremyescott):

 I was just about to write a patch for this very feature.

 This is something I've found myself wanting a couple of times for my WP-
 based applications. The ability to add behaviors up there, eg: Sync with
 External Data, etc, is something that may be more and more and common as
 WP becomes more of an app platform. Asking users to find a tools or
 settings screen to press a button is a pain.

 Yes, Javascript injection will continue to work, but its not ideal and JS
 is harder to test around, plus we get screen flickers on slow loading
 connections. I know that it may cause issues with responsiveness, but that
 should be up to the developers to address if they're adding buttons.

 +1

 I'll volunteer to revise the patch if needed.
