I would maybe like to have nautilus-actions integrated into Nautilus, 
but I'm not sure that then, I will be able to maintain it as efficiently 
as I do it now.
BTW, I agree that the contextual menu is not the best place for "Manage 
Actions". Maybe, if I want to keep the "extensions" status, I could add 
it in the "Places" like the CD/DVD burner and call it "Actions Manager" 
(not sure how it works exactly) or make it only appears in the "Edit" 
menu of the window if possible... what do you think ?
