    You should switch to #cmakedefine01 in the config-apps.h file, and use #if here.
    
    This has the additional benefit that if you forget to include the header file, or make a typo in the #if line, the compiler tells you nicely.
    
    We are switching all of KDE Frameworks to that, please do the same in new code.
    
    (Doesn't have to be done in this review request of course, since apparently it will affect existing code in the rest of the module, too...)

    Is there a risk that this static pointer becomes dangling when this view is destroyed? I guess you're relying on FocusOut being received, but I wonder if this is 100% safe. Worst case an event filter could eat the FocusOut (but ok it would be a bug to have such an over-hungry eventfilter), or a Qt bug could make it fail to deliver the FocusOut before the view gets deleted. I'm not completely sure there's a bug here, but it just sounds risky to rely on an event to be received in order to avoid a crash.
