Yes.

No.

This part could be very easy to implement, but maybe
you clarify something for me...

I can see the GtkActionGroup you have a way to add
a bunch of actions, and some convenience functions
to set a logical group as sensitive or visible or stuff.

Could you explain how the GtkActionGroup is useful
at all to you outside the context of a GtkUIManager ?
