How to add a new device "capability"?

Hi guys… Great topic!

This is something I’ve brought up in discussion with @Ben ages ago, and with @Jim very recently.

I actually thought that arbitrary new capabilities could be created on the fly just by naming them in the "metadata{}' section, but …

So – it looks like at least a little involvement is required from the SmartThings side to update the master list in this situation.


But importantly…
