I think you can forward declare Action ate the top and define it later.   
You end up with vector<Action> in arguments.  I know that using standard  
classes with incomplete types is not guaranteed to work, but I'm not sure  
if mentioning it as a parameter is a 'use'.

Maybe this thread should be moved to c.l.c++.moderated.
