Comment (by dimpase):

 There are more useful permutation group actions, see http://www.gap-
 system.org/Manuals/doc/ref/chap41.html

 Namely, {{{OnPairs, OnSetsSets, OnSetsDisjointSets, OnSetsTuples,
 OnTuplesSets, OnTuplesTuples}}} all should work just fine.

 One has to canonize the representative to start with, for some of them,
 [http://www.gap-system.org/Manuals/doc/ref/chap41.html#X82181CA07A5B2056
 see here]. E.g.
 {{{
 Orbit(SymmetricGroup(5),Set([[2,4],[1,3]]),OnSetsSets);
 }}}
 is OK, but
 {{{
 Orbit(SymmetricGroup(5),[[2,4],[1,3]],OnSetsSets);
 }}}
 gives an error.

 Less sure about {{{OnIndeterminates}}}.

 There is also a support for user-defined actions, but this would mean
 either specifying a piece of GAP code, or providing a callback, which
 seems to be too crazy to implement.
