Yeah, this probably makes it into the list of "10 most bizarre bugs
ever". Currently we're assuming that the real bug is in
KPluginSelector, or in Oxygen (or Qt?). And if that's true, it's
rather critical, and it might affect other parts of Amarok (and other
applications) too.

For instance we're getting random reports about our Script Manager
widget freezing. None of us devs could really reproduce this, but I
think there is a chance that this might be related to the above bug as
well. We'll have to do some detective work for figuring this out
completely.
