- * #AtkAction implementation. As ClutterActor has signals for "press"
- * and "release", and most of the general Clutter objects are being
- * used as buttons, it has sense to implement #AtkAction on
- * #CallyActor, so this actions were added in this level.
+ * #AtkAction implementation: on previous releases ClutterActor added
+ * the actions "press", "release" and "click", as at that time some
+ * general-purpose actors like textures were directly used as buttons.
  *
- * So we should search a way to extend #AtkAction on subclasses, to
- * add actions. The direct solution would be just extend it normally,
- * but we also should have the option to remove actions if required.
+ * But now, new toolkits appeared, providing high-level widgets, like
+ * buttons. So in this environment, it doesn't make sense to keep
+ * adding them as default.
  *
- * So it was used the solution implemented in GailCell: maintain a
- * list of actions, and add a _add_action and _remove_action public
- * methods.
+ * Anyway, current implementation of AtkAction is done at CallyActor
+ * providing methods to add and remove actions. This is based on the
+ * one used at gailcell, and proposed as a change on #AtkAction
+ * interface:
  *
- * This is another reason to not isolate CALLY as GAIL (although the
- * current idea is to not do that).
