John’s code should do the trick.  I don’t see how this could possibly
cause your problems with the action menu.  The change should be
completely transparent for Helm.

Regarding your other question: I don’t see any disadvantages of using
several BibTeX files but I also don’t see an advantage because
helm-bibtex gives you all you need to select your own publications with
just a few key strokes.  If helm-bibtex’ search does not work well in
your case (perhaps another author has the same name as you), I would
suggest using tags to mark your own publications:
