Using the $HandleActions array makes it run too late in the process stream.

You may then either do the things in the PITS way:

if ($action == 'newaction') {
  ...
  $action = 'edit';
}

but why not try to call HandleEdit yourself?

function ProcesssNewAction($pagename, $args) {

  ....get a page name  etc. ....
  ....get some template stuff into $text

  if(isset($_POST['newpage'])) {
    ...try to get $text into newpage...
    $pagename = $newpage;
    HandleEdit($pagename, $args);
  }
  else
    ....we modify the page instead....
}
