I thought about that, too. And then thought this could easily be put
in _arguments, i.e. make it just look for a certain prefix in the
action -- as if there were a function called. I couldn't find another
use for this dummy-insertion-function...

We could. _arguments itself would probably use the same it puts into
$curcontext... (which in turn made me think that this wasn't so clever
an idea anyway).
