Feature Request: ability property in damage activities #5011

Use case e.g. the Graze weapon mastery with a Pact of the Blade type effect:

Mastery: Graze. If your attack roll with this weapon misses a creature, you can deal damage to that creature equal to the ability modifier you used to make the attack roll. This damage is the same type dealt by the weapon, and the damage can be increased only by increasing the ability modifier.

Creating an enchantment activity that changes the ability used for attack and damage rolls of attack activities is supported (by changing activities[attack].attack.ability) but there is no such thing for pure damage activities.

The workaround right now is either making Graze-like effects an attack activity (and ignoring the attack roll) or manually changing the damage to @abilities.<ability>.mod. Both is kind of annoying.

I would love to have e.g. a damage.ability property in damage activities that can be changed from active effects and referenced as @mod in the damage formula, just like for attack activities.
