No, it it is just that KPageDialog behaves differently than it did in KDE3.5.  
That convenience method just happens to have been the way to get at the old 
functionality.

I don't think this is application specific behavior.  This was the behavior of 
the dialog in the old version in KDE 3.5.  And again, the current behavior is 
*very* odd if you make a KPageWidgetItem with QWidget=0.  I'm just suggesting 
to 'fix' it so that it behaves like it did in KDE 3.5.

The problem with Matthias idea is that seeing a useless 'category' page is not 
desired.
