It is hard to understand how flexible and functional an action bar application can be by just reading guides and manuals. The only real way to find this out is to set up a small prototype system and try it out. How to do this is described in Prototype an Action Bar.
The following points are things that you should consider when planning or designing applications that are to use action bars.
...
4. The prototype can then be gradually converted to a complete application by successively generating the required RDML code for each pull down option, and replacing action bar control table references to PROTO with the "real" function.
Including other advanced CUA features such as prompt key processing into an action bar application design is vital if the design is to be simple, yet highly functional.
