in order to define the controller->action extbase should use from inside 
your flexform, all you have to do is to give the flexform field a 
special name: "switchableControllerActions". The value of this field 
will tell extbase which controller/action pair to use.

Example:

<switchableControllerActions>
	<TCEforms>
		<label>Possible actions</label>
		<config>
			<type>select</type>
			<maxitems>5</maxitems>
			<multiple>0</multiple>
			<size>5</size>
			<items>
				<numIndex index="0" type="array">
					<numIndex index="0">Action A</numIndex>
					<numIndex index="1">Controller1->action1</numIndex>
				</numIndex>
				<numIndex index="1" type="array">
					<numIndex index="0">Action B</numIndex>
					<numIndex index="1">Controller1->action2</numIndex>
				</numIndex>
				<numIndex index="2" type="array">
					<numIndex index="0">Multiple actions allowed</numIndex>
					<numIndex 
index="1">Controller1->action1,Controller1-action2,Controller2->action1</numIndex>
				</numIndex>
			</items>
		</config>
	</TCEforms>
</switchableControllerActions>
