I'd like to Control-click on an Action in the Actions column and have a contextual menu appear which, at the very least, includes Help so I can read the KB Wiki Help page for the action. Otherwise, I have to drag the Action into a macro and then do Gear, Help. This would make it easier to learn what the actions do.
Option + Dbl-Click will do this.
The cursor changes to ? when you press and hold the Option key.

Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but that doesn't work for me.
This is what I get when I press the ⌥ key while hovering over the Actions List:
Then double-clicking - as @harshar said - opens the KM wiki page in your browser.

Thanks @tiffle. (I was trying to take the screenshot as well)
Also, the Option key works in the Edit -> Insert Action

Sorry, I misunderstood the OP. Yes, that works for me as well.

@harshar Thank you -- Option, Dbl-Click does exactly what I want. (The Actions list still begs to have a contextual menu via Control-click.)

Option means either Help or Edit all through Keyboard Maestro.
You can option click/double click palette entries, status menu entries, actions, etc. And you can option-select triggers, actions, functions, tokens, etc.
Having a contextual menu just for Help seems excessive.
