Feature request: check that local actions exist about actionlint HOT 3 OPEN

Could it be added back in as an opt-in feature for the people who don't fetch their actions in a workflow?

from actionlint.

This was once checked by actionlint, but removed later because local actions don't always exist in the repository. Some people fetch their actions in workflow.

Theoretically the same check can be applied to remote actions (for other repos)

This means actionlint needs network requests and it will make actionlint much slower. Currently actionlint does not make any network request by design.

Thanks for explanation.

Wow, I was not aware of such use-case.
