Action means it has to be triggered by the user, it not necessarily alters the
file. (for example putting into an archive would be an action but wouldn't

There is a special plugin API for that

I am pretty sure a plugin for mp3 ID3 tags is already available, depending on
your distribution it could be in a special package for multimedia related KDE
things.
