Make it a toggle action, please. Otherwise game logic will have to control the 
view property..

I didn't find an appropriate icon either. What I usually do (or should do) in 
these cases: make one yourself, no matter how ugly, commit, and ask 
kde-artists to improve it. Our inability to create high-quality icons 
shouldn't prevent us from adding actions with icons.

I could work on a mockup icon for this action.. my initial thoughts: a soft 
2x2 grid with a token on 1,1 and arrows to the other 3 grids. For "view 
possible moves" there would be a question mark on top, for "demo or autoplay" 
the play icon.
