You could have QQuickAction::trigger() and QQuickAction::triggered() pass the (QObject) sender as an optional parameter. Then, make sure that QQuickMenuItem, BasicButton, etc. use this. (Remember that you should not emit triggered() yourself, but call trigger() instead).This is a very common pattern in other frameworks (Cocoa comes to mind), and could make sense as an API for QQuickAction. Passing some string only solves your particular problem, so that would not be acceptable as a general purpose API.
