I think the test_viewactivation test could be adapted to use IdealDockWidgets instead of QDockWidgets, but that requires exporting at least IdealDockController, IdealButtonBarWidget, IdealToolWidget and IdealLayout (I've already exported IdealDockWidgets itself so that doc plugins can configure it to use regular instead of floating windows).

I guess that those classes would require exporting for any unittest, is that worth it? I mean, you cannot really unit-test how those windows behave, if they render their content as it should etc, can you?

FWIW, I also get the test to link when I add the source files for the classes above to the test sources. The result doesn't crash straight away. I know this is safe with C, but is it also safe with C++?
