Adding an option for action actuator - "Continue" this means animations always play from where they left off. Continue was the 2.46 operation too, so new functionality is the option to disable.

When using states, an action like kick or throw can often switch out before finishing playing the action, and there was no way to play from the start frame the second time round. (even setting the actions current frame through python doesn't work work)
