KHTMLPart doesn't care for the StatusbarExtension of its child parts...
I think it should look for one, and call setStatusBar in it, to propagate the
statusbar that was set by konqueror into KHTMLPart's StatusbarExtension.
Hopefully konq will set it before KHTMLPart gets child parts...

... which is wrong for konqueror, since in konqueror there's a statusbar per view
(think of splitted views), instead of the kmainwindow-constructed statusbar.
