Yes, that's right, but I tend not to use lambdas cause I don't like
them and they are deprecated so could disappear in the future. 

Anyway I think that the add_actions method should be rethinked, what I
did manually should be performed inside the implementation of
add_actions. Otherwise is unuseful to have the "user_data" ... or at
least I think so ;-)

You are right, I can add it manually with the insert method, I didn't
think about that. Thanks.
