Yeah, I don't think most new people will found out that they can use
shift-f1 for that ;-) They may look in help->what's this, but most dialogs
that have what's this help don't have menus...

On a related note: in Qt 3 you get a context menu with 'what's this?' on
QLineEdits and QComboBoxes (and likely many other widgets, never tried),
but this option is missing in KLineEdit/KComboBox. Could someone add them
there? (I am talking about 3.0 branch, it might be there in HEAD already.
If so, disregard this issue.)
