New description:

 There is no coercion between QQ and finite rings
 {{{
 sage: cm = get_coercion_model()
 sage: cm.get_action(Zmod(2), QQ, operator.mul) is None
 True
 }}}
 This is right.

 But we do have an action of matrices on vectors
 {{{
 sage: M = MatrixSpace(Zmod(2),2)
 sage: V = VectorSpace(QQ,2)
 sage: cm.get_action(M,V,operator.mul)
 Left action by
   Full MatrixSpace of 2 by 2 dense matrices over Ring of integers modulo 2
 on
   Vector space of dimension 2 over Rational Field
 }}}
 or
 {{{
 sage: M = MatrixSpace(QQ,2)
 sage: V = VectorSpace(Zmod(2),2)
 sage: cm.get_action(M,V,operator.mul)
 Left action by
   Full MatrixSpace of 2 by 2 dense matrices over Rational Field on
   Vector space of dimension 2 over Ring of integers modulo 2
 }}}
 And this is wrong!
