Roland, I don't think this is a good idea. You should call methods from
the grepdialog towards opening the according file and go to the line you
want to go and those dialogs are called from the IDE directly which is
the reason for the pointers. Please, try to avoid abstracting those
pointers somewhere else where they don't belong :-)  Better is to
forward signals to the IDE and then back to where you want to go. You
can connect a signal with a signal again and then connect the second
signal with another slot for example. See the classtree RMB popup how it
forwards the entries to the statusbar help.
