I wouldn't want to return just the device name. Probably something like `device(entity_id)` returning a [device registry entry](https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/device_registry_index#device-properties)

If `set_state` would be added, people would also expect to be able to see always every attribute in the light state, even if it is not currently in use. So...

@mickdekkers I don't think that we should add code to the core to make a specific use case (only control via HA) work better while making other use cases more...

What you're proposing is a new automation component with device and integration specific triggers instead of triggers based on events/states.

Sometimes sync code will need to be implemented in async because it needs to use sleep or locks, which we don't want in sync-land.
