How about just ‘displays’ and ‘actions’?

Display configurable as a single selection (none being an option—easy to make a 
dummy display style).
Actions as a list (of checkboxes maybe, or better, an arbitrary list so one 
could eg. do multiple mailme actions to separate accounts/run multiple 
applescripts/etc.)

(moving further off-topic)
Perhaps with that much customisability, it’d be worth considering some way for 
a user to group notifications as to these sets of behaviours, rather than 
per-notification, by-app?
Searching for analogies; it could have an iTunes playlist-like structure in 
that you select a group of notifications (either manually, or (ala smart 
playlist) according to a set of rules) and define the display and actions you 
want for that group.
Any leftovers fall back to the ‘default’ behaviour.
