I think GuiEditor is exactly you're asking about. I can only guess what's
GuiEditor in Simon's interpretation, but I does not look like a KPart.
Therefore you can do whatever you want like:
editor.hide(); // ~ unplug
editor.removeAction(myAction);

Simon, am I right with that? Do my proposals above have any sense?

Hmm, that means that using the new approach you would need
to save the action configuration manually. Maybe xml was not
that bad ;) But anyway, it's easy to save the configuration manually.
