Indeed. The problem is just that in the i18n there is only one Action,
which does everything (the "Shop"). Now, this is not how I would have
designed this functionality, but in order to keep it as similar to the
original article as possible I kept it this way. And with only one
action it is a bit silly to do support classes.

So, should I do the right thing and split it up into several distinct
actions, or keep it this way to be more similar to the original article
(which makes it easier to compare too)?
