If you mean for SSO, yes.

Well, I think ideally we want it abstracted in the actions so that the
message context(s) abstract away the message details into the individual
information bits the actions need. What specifically are you looking for
or at?

I would probably start by assuming they're separate and merge them only if
that becomes obvious. Merging them for me is not about saving work, but
cleaning up the design once the functionality is done.
