I think it's far more frequent to use the static methods of KMessageBox rather 
than explicitly allocating a KMessageBox object. These methods cannot be 
changed (unless you completely get rid of them, which I don't think is a good 
idea). As a result, the KMessageBox API would be quite inconsistent with the 
static methods containing the texts for the buttons, while the constructors 
don't.

Cheers,
Reinhold
