The proposed change looks sound to me, thanks for the report and the patch!
I’d like to get feedback from design before merging, adding a ubuntu-ux task.

Title:
Drop "Open a " from .desktop Actions
Status in Ubuntu UX:
New
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
Start the Web Browser app.
Right-click on its icon in Unity's Dash (the strip on the left side of the
screen).
There are two custom Actions: "Open a New Window" and "Open a New Private
Window".
I propose that the "Open a " prefix be dropped.
This provides greater consistency with other apps which just use "New
Window" or "New Document" Actions. Examples include epiphany-browser,
gedit, LibreOffice and Nautilus.
In GNOME Shell, Actions show in the Activities Overview. GNOME Shell
includes a default "New Window" action. So in GNOME Shell, the actions
shown include the duplicate "New Window" and "Open a New Window".
(Note that an explicit "New Window" shortcut does not duplicate the
default "New Window" in GNOME Shell as long as the action is named
new-window.)
