True. It’ll only show up for the right type of objects. What you can do is 
select that action in the normal interface and copy it with ⌘C, then paste it 
as the action when creating the trigger with ⌘V.

No, you weren’t saying anything I don’t already know. :-)

We have that, as Etienne pointed out, just for limited catalog entries. It’s 
still considered somewhat experimental. Try creating a file in your home 
directory then searching QS for it right away. :-)

Searching will be slow if your catalog is too large, but he was talking about 
indexing the catalog. It’s incredibly fast and happens in the background. 
Something to keep in mind is that Quicksilver doesn’t blindly rescan all those 
entries you see every 10 minutes. It asks each of them if they’re still current 
and only rescans the ones that say “no”.

The “watch” setting should work for any “File & Folder Scanner” entry. There’s 
no UI for it, but you can set it in Catalog.plist if you want to live on the 
edge. :-)
