If "<big folder title> : Miscellaneous" qualifies, then yes :-)

I have some other more descriptively named SALs as well mostly covering repetitive tasks (pet care, housekeeping, etc.) I find it more convenient to handle such tasks with a SAL when there are differing repeat intervals than with a repeating project, and philosophically, I like my projects to have discernable endpoints. "Daily pet care : Feed the cats" is much more appealing to me than a project called "Feed the cats until they die" :-)

You can put action groups in SALs, so they don't have to be limited to one step actions. For example, I've got a nested action group in my plant care SAL that has me water the orchids the first weekend, and the next weekend they get a multi-day watering and feeding process, then the cycle repeats.
