Would be great if someone could help me. Here's the problem:
One third party plugin defines an action in the following way:

<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.actionSets">
   <actionSet
        id="x.y.z.navigation.additions"
        label="Command Group"
        visible="false">
      <action
          class="x.y.z.ThirdPartyAction"
          icon="..."
          id="x.y.z.someFeature"
          label="..."
          toolbarPath="..."
          tooltip="...">
      </action>
   </actionSet>
</extension>

My goal is to add my action to the same actionSet, so that it will appear under the same "Command Group" in Customize Perspective wizard.

I tried to use same actionSet id and same label in my plugin. In this case there are two action sets - one with two commands (bingo!) and one completely empty - which doesn't look nice. I need to kill the empty one! Evil or Very Mad
