No, I'm not testing it. I use ReviewBoard as an alternative to KDE Bugzilla ;)

Multiple results, e.g. versions of the tab, are stored and can be choosen from a list. A settings dialog allows to define the type of tabs to be fetched. In this patch we've guitar and bass, but it could be extended to e.g. drums or piano in the future. Furthermore I've added a reload button which allows to easily refine the criteria for the tab-search. This can be used e.g. when no tab-results were found because the song name contains fragments like (live), remix, etc.

Please be aware that I don't know if there are any copyright restrictions on these bitmaps! Maybe they can be replaced with some KDE/Plasma specific images. Unfortunately I didn't find anything appropriate.
