    You should use QWeakPointer instead of QPointer.

    stick to the code style please.

Since nested event loops are potential sources of inadvertent crashes, this patch attempts to prevent that by changing how dialogs are created in kdelibs. All blocking dialog calls, i.e. those that invoke QDialog.exec(), are wrapped with QPointer and the QPointer is checked once QDialog.exec returns. See http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3919 for more details.
