That's pretty much what I suggested.  The whole point of  
discriminators was conflict detection.  That is why I suggested  
extending actions to support identifiers that could be used for  
overriding or disabling even for actions (or groups of actions) that  
don't otherwise conflict.  This id scheme would leverage  
discriminators when present.
