- Patch #148410 by jvandyk: added rewrite of the actions module!
This is a very important patch, but one that is merely an enabler. Hopefully we'll see more people submitting "action patches" in the near future. Thanks for the hard work and persistence, John. *If* you decide to update the Drupal Pro Development book to Drupal 6, make sure to add a chapter on actions. ;)

+ * Given the IDs of actions to perform, find out what the callbacks
+ * for the actions are by querying the database. Then call each callback
+ * using the function call $function('do', $object, $context, $a1, $2)
+ * where $function is the name of a function written in compliance with
+ * the action specification; that is, foo($object, $context). The $params
+ * parameter is an array of stored parameters that have been previously
+ * configured through the web using actions.module.
+ *
+ * @param $action_ids
+ * The ID of the action to perform. Can be a single action ID or an array
+ * of IDs. IDs of instances will be numeric; IDs of singletons will be
+ * function names.
+ * @param $object
+ * Parameter that will be passed along to the callback. Typically the
+ * object that the action will act on; a node, user or comment object.
+ * @param $context
+ * Parameter that will be passed along to the callback. $context is a
+ * keyed array containing extra information about what is currently
+ * happening at the time of the call. Typically $context['hook'] and
+ * $context['op'] will tell which hook-op combination resulted in this
+ * call to actions_do().
+ * @param $a1
+ * Parameter that will be passed along to the callback.
+ * @param $a2
+ * Parameter that will be passed along to the callback.
+ *
+ * @return
+ * An associative array containing the result of the function that
