 Let's add our action to the action group "custom-group" and add the group then to our window.
 The action entry isn't specific to our window anymore, the first parameter of the "activate" callback is of type `SimpleActionGroup` instead of `ApplicationWindow`.
 This means we have to clone `window` into the closure.

+Also, if we had multiple instances of the same windows, we would expect that only the currently focused window will be closed when activating "win.close".
 And indeed, the "win.close" will be dispatched to the currently focused window.
 However, that also means that we actually define one action per window instance.
 If we want to have a single globally accessible action instead, we call `add_action_entries` on our application instead.

+If you want to create a [menu](https://developer.gnome.org/hig/patterns/controls/menus.html), you have to use actions, and you will want to use the interface builder.
 Typically, a menu entry has an action fitting one of these three descriptions:
 - no parameter and no state, or
 - no parameter and boolean state, or
 - string parameter and string state.
 
 Let's modify our small app to demonstrate these cases.
