How to get reference to an ActionSet ? [message #435054]

Hi folks,
I want to use a common actionset for several views, which i have defined
in my own perspective using layout.addActionSet(). The actions are shown
in the worbench toolbar.
How can I get a reference to this actionset or actions defined in it ?
WorkbenchPlugin.getActionSetRegistry() seems to be a kind of deprecated
and uses internal classes and I don't want to use RetargetAction's
because these kind of actions must be redefined on every view in my
perspective...

Any hints ?

I have also been looking for ways to reuse an action set. I have an
action set in the main menu (contributed through plugin.xml) and a context
menu with the same options. Unfortunately, I have to hard code context
menu because I couldn't figure out how to get a reference to actions
defined in plugin.xml.

I would submit a feature request, but I have a nagging suspicion that I'm
going about this the wrong way.
