Is there a way to set the status for a single action as On Hold?

I have a separate folder of on-hold projects (in the projects view) called Someday/Maybe. Generally, I don't have actions items for these projects, but there are exceptions. Each one of these items is listed as a project that is marked on-hold (pause button icon in inspector). That way any actions that are in there don't show up in the contexts lists that are included for regular in-progress next actions.
Generally, this list is much less "well defined" in terms of project outcomes so something like "Sewing Quilt" is ok as a project name. If it were to become active, I would define it more like "Sew Quilt to give to Joe for birthday." or whatever...
