  default_actions + installed_actions + custom_actions
end

+ (Object) actions

CloudCrowd::Actions are requested dynamically by name. Access them through this actions property, which behaves like a hash. At load time, we load all installed Actions and CloudCrowd's default Actions into it. If you wish to have certain nodes be specialized to only handle certain Actions, then install only those into the actions directory.
