Within the GLib world the :: syntax is quite common for this kind of thing,
it's a bit of a hack sure but arguably better than changing the interface

Of course if we do have a "Replied" instead of using ActionInvoked it would be
better to use a hint than an action since actions are things you ActionInvoked

In an ideal world we we probably drop ActionInvoked in favour of
org.freedesktop.Application.ActivateAction, which helpfully takes an arbitrary
variant as a parameter, but unfortunately we can't just break everything

Can't say I've noticed that myself
