+## NcActions children limitations
+
+`<NcActions>` is supposed to be used with direct `<NcAction*>` children.
+Although it works when actions are not direct children but wrapped in custom components, it has limitations:
+- No `inline` prop property, including a single action display;
+- Accessibility issues, including changed keyboard behavior;
+- Invalid HTML.
