Yep.  I will make up a patch for it then....

Nope.  It would work fine with "this" as well.  However, the cached password 
will be removed as soon as the last window referencing it is closed.  In this 
case it would be when you close the file widget after using it.  That defeats 
the purpose of having the password cache since you would probably want to 
cache it for the lifetime of the application.  So I simply assumed that if I 
use topLevelWidget (),  I would get the container the KFileDialog widget.  
And even if that is not the case,  I would end up with "this" :)
