As Tom mentioned, the ActionFactory actions are retargetable (and not 
even that in 3.4).  They don't do anything, they just delegate execution 
to something else.

If you need to have "copy" work as *either* normal copy in the current 
text control *or* run your copy action to deal with something in the 
part (a graphical object, for example) you can use 
org.eclipse.ui.actions.TextActionHandler
