I tried that but the configuration (toolbar position etc.) gets lost.
It doesn't work without saving and restoring the configuration with
saveMainWindowSettings( ) and applyMainWindowSettings( ) in the shell.

My current solution which works only inside kpovmodeler is to call
void PMShell::updateGUI( )
{
   saveMainWindowSettings( KGlobal::config( ), "Appearance" );
   createGUI( 0 );
   createShellGUI( false );
   createGUI( m_pPart );
   applyMainWindowSettings( KGlobal::config( ), "Appearance" );
}
after the plugins are updated.
