Those actions are in the Icon Naming Specification, but is not yet in 
tango-icon-theme because no one has drawn them yet. The actions are 
dialog-cancel, dialog-close and dialog-ok.
If someone send me some graphics for those actions I can put them in 
tangerine right away and probably in tango-icon-theme aswell. I would be 
happy to receive them in both 16x16, 22x22 and scalable, but if someone 
provides me with the scalable variants only, I can probably fix them up 
in the small sizes.
