as an option, nothing. as a default it increases the visual information on the 
screen with lines that embody no actual information; e.g. noise.

this makes it that much more difficult to focus on the actually important 
items like buttons and menus. perhaps if we didn't have so bloody many of 
them it wouldn't matter quite as much, but our toolbars tend to be pretty 
busy.

actually, more apps have one toolbar (or one row of them) than don't. and in 
those cases it creates a double devel that just looks hideous.

not possible in qt3, might be possible in qt4 (we were discussing it the other 
day on irc)
