Well, its still cool to have the "new class" wizard fill in the
copyright headers for me.

Apart from that, DUChain only helps you to recognize existing code, it
doesn't help when you want to create a new file for a new class. (Except
for getting the base class, possibly abstract methods and the right
#include). So maybe rather port the C++ class wizard to kdevelop4 and
make it work with duchain, but include the possibility to have a
template-header and footer file thats used for a new .h or .cpp.
