Reimplementing an existing virtual method is fine if you can accept that it is 
not called if the program reimplementing the class is not re-compiled
(i.e, if the feaure added in that implementation is optional.)


But you can make it a slot to solve this issue, because slot connections are 
always virtuals.
(Assuming the slot is called from a signal and not from a dirrect C++ call to 
the slot)
