Why does the patch seem to affect only KBookmarkBar?
That's the "bookmark toolbar", but if all the code is there, then it means this feature
isn't available in the normal bookmark menu....

Not IMHO. KBookmark is the _data_ only (a wrapper around QDomElement).
All events and stuff are above it.

I think there are. Keeping BC is a no brainer anyway.

Changes in konq are fine.

There are a lot of things in the patch that don't look very clean... e.g.
+ m_toolBar->insertWidget( 0, 25, new KIPEToolBarButton( m_toolBar, bm, m_pOwner ) );
25? Why not 17 or 42? :)

Is the drawButton() stuff really necessary? What do those changes have to do with
the way things are drawn? Can you explain the whole idea?

PS: please post diffs with "cvs diff -b" when they include lots of whitespace changes.
Also, the diff doesn't include the contents of kipebookmarkmenu.h ...
