 But forcing it by default on the buttons is wrong IMHO. If I write a dialog 
based on QDialog, the first widget will have focus, if this dialog is changed 
to use KDialogBase, suddenly it will be the first button having the focus.

 Another try: The KDialogBase patch is almost the same, and there's additional 
patch for KActiveLabel, as that one IMHO shouldn't actually get focus, as 
it's a label after all, even though based on QTextBrowser.

 Is it ok to commit it?
