In many cases we need to clear hidden values when a user exits a certain screen (SessionID, DateTime Stamps).  
I know we can easily do that with actions but I don’t always want the user to get the feeling of “canaled action” , Sometimes its just the flow of the app.  
Its not best practice to have the same action appear in different places on different screens and in different designs as well.  
I Wish we could keep a unified UX and not use CSS for hiding the back button and then adding buttons for actions with the back action.

Agree with you. Should be like Commit Action.
