Hi

Annma asked me to switch back from using from KToggleAction to KAction for the 
menuactions.

Reasoning:
The actions generated by xml-gui (show toolbar for example) are displayed as 
"Show Foo" and "Hide Foo".
The actions we created are always "Show Foo" but are toggled which is 
visualized by the icon left of the action.

I prefere our way because of several things, for example I think that 
GUI-Items shouldn't change. Florian from OpenUsability agrees with me, the 
HIG doesn't say anything about that and other apps do whatever they like.

Fact is that currently the menu is not consistent (we use both ways) and that 
the xml-gui-way cannot be changed.

Question: Should we move back to the Show/Hide Foo way or stick like it is. 
The corresponding bugreport is: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109080
