This might be a little too intrusive IMHO. The app will have no way to choose
whether it wants this action or not.
And in e.g. Konqueror we don't want it (there isn't a single statusbar,
but one per view).

I think we rather need a dedicated class, KToggleStatusBar, like we have
KToggleToolBar, that does all the magic behind the scenes, but one still
has to create it explicitly using KStdAction::showStatusbar.
