We have two active threads on this same topic (the other being [this one](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/dashboard-2-is-there-a-simple-way-to-configure-button-so-that-it-toggles/90830/11))

Documenting here (as I have in the other too), that despite being tempted to add this into core button node, I think we should be going down the `button-state` as a third-party node route.
