Server and Client Components in actions #66295

I'm trying to understand if it's feasible to use actions to return components instead of data in Next.js.
My goal is for the client to receive a component from an action, rather than just data.

Here's what I've found so far:

Using fully server-side components makes this possible.
As soon as I add client components, I encounter errors. It appears that client components returned from actions are not being added to the manifest, likely by design.
I'm wondering if this approach is considered an anti-pattern and should be avoided, or if there's is/will be way to configure actions to send client components.

Thank you
