On one hand, this behaves differently than the other 3 entries in the Display menu. On the other hand, this is not something you DO with the document (like rename or delete), but a different way of displaying it, thus I strongly think it doesn't belong to the Actions menu, and I moderately believe that it belongs in the Display menu. > About the Display option, I think that would be great.

The display menu will just "force" one of the stylesheets to be used, regardless of the current media, something like: <link rel="stylesheet" media="all or print" > Another question: should it be called "Display" or "View" ?
