The one-to-one of one Gtk::Action per will work in some cases, but breaks down in others. So forcing one-to-one will complicate implementation of many of them.

Also Gtk::Action is a very UI-centric class. We need something abstract that can represent an action on

1. a document
2. a desktop
3. the "Application" itself.

the case of #2 can be replaced by Gtk::Action appropriately, but the others don't really match conceptually.

I followed some of that discussion. The main idea is to use one action group per document. For case #3, we use a separate global action group that does not act on any document but rather on the entire application.

I don't really understand the distinction between #1 and #2.
