Your best bet is to use the ICommandService and
org.eclipse.ui.commands.ICommandService.addExecutionListener (IExecutionListener)

This will notify about all commands executed (command contributions and
keybindings) as well as all actions that have set their
actionDefinitionId to a matching command.

There's no similar hook in the action system, although you could
probably hack something into a display filter on SWT.Selection (but even
that's only part of the story)
