C-style cast always work and never fail, they are unsafe _because_ they always 
work. dynamic_cast fail because they try to be safe, and sometimes can't 
figure out if it's safe or not.

I want things to work, I can take care of safety myself. Please don't confuse 
the two types of "works".

Note that I put the "I guess I am oldfashioned" as a disclaimer to say that I 
don't usually recommmend others using C-style casts. I would prefer 
static_cast<> in KDE.
