This is a very strange comment. Why define a completely new action,
if you _just_ want to change the text ? At least all the rest
(icon, accel, name...) is consistent. If you define a new one,
it will be even more inconsistent. Changing a text can happen
if in this particular application, the standard action needs
a slightly different label. Still, the icon, accel, etc. are still valid.
