I guess InvokeURIAction is just a generalization of OpenURI (where Open
would be the default action). 

I suppose you're doing it because that's how gnome-open behaves
currently. But what will you do when gvfs will deprecate URIs as the
primary way of referring to a file ?

And, besides, InvokeAction would just be another generalisation, where
the argument can be something else than an URI...
