I share the author's disappointment that the gmail app didn't get action buttons for incoming emails. About half of the emails I receive are junk. Having to launch the gmail app to delete them or archive them seems like overkill.
Happily, now that the notification system is in place it's probably pretty trivial for the gmail team to provide this functionality as an app update.
