That's right, and you must have done something wrong. I have already most KDE 
widgets in my designer here :-))

As a side effect of the whole thing the designer uses KApplication, 
KMainWindow and KToolBar/KMenuBar when compiled with HAVE_KDE. So it looks 
under KDE like a KDE app now. But for the first version I don't go further, 
as we want to release the final pretty soon. Fortunately KMainWindow/KToolBar 
and KMenuBar are now subclasses of the Q-classes, so this change was only a 
matter of a few #defines :-)
