This looks good. I didn't verify the legal fields for each action
against the OpenFlow spec, however.

If the user specifies an invalid field for a given action, they'll get
the "unknown keyword %s" error message, right? I think it would be more
helpful to say that the keyword isn't allowed with that action, but I
guess it would add more code.

I'm fine with pushing this patch as it stands, though. Thanks.
