Another may be Function Bar. The Actions dropdow list is on this bar.
A different name may help distinguish it from the Actions list.
My 2 cents.
Quoting Terran McCanna <[email protected]>:
I agree - Action Row or Action Bar makes sense to me because you're taking
action (regardless of whether there's an actual Action button or not).

Similarly, I don't love Configuration Bar because to my mind that leaves
out Actions and Paging.
However, I think Action Row (or Action Bar, or Grid Action Bar, or the
like) actually captures all the things that can go there -- Paging Actions,
Configuration Actions, and Action-Actions.

As far as the code is concerned, there are some internal names in use
that may be useful for setting on a name for use by the documentation.
The copy tag interface (/eg/staff/admin/local/asset/copy_tag) is what
I'm using as an example since the grid there uses all of the UI
widgets I'm about to refer to.
Going by CSS class names in particular:
* The button(s) on the left ("New Record") in this example are "grid
menu items".
* The set of of widgets that include the paging buttons the Actions
menu (if present) and column configuration drop-down is the "column
picker"
* The items in the Actions drop-down are "grid actions"
* The whole row, including grid menu item and the column picker is the
"action row".
I offer these in case they are helpful; I do /not/ suggest that the
documentation need to follow the CSS class names.
Regards,
Galen
