This would mean something like:

  QQuickAction *quickAction1 = ...;
  qmlContext->setContextProperty("action1", quickAction1);
  myWidget->addAction(new QAction(quickAction, someParent));

for each action? Or exporting some kind of actioncollection to qml instead? 
The actions need to be created in C++ if a hybrid application with mixed APIs 
is the goal.

I'm glad interoperability with QAction is one of your goals with this stuff.

separation of the QtQuick and QtWidgets action API to avoid breakage was the 
goal:

So, I'm looking forward to eventually seeing your ideas for how hybrids and 
interoperability might work (some time after vacation I hope :)).

Thanks,
