Hi Greg

The so called action plugins are not available in the 4.0 branch and
probably never will.

You can see the chages to the comming 4.0.7 since 4.0.6 on
https://git.launchpad.net/kicad/log/?h=4.0

I don't think any python bindings have changed since 4.0.6. I hope this
answers your question.

Nick
