So what's your preferred approach? Starting from DolphinContextMenu (and 
extracting it into KIO), or starting from KonqPopupMenu?

E.g. do you consider the visual appearance or the API of KonqPopupMenu 
particularly ugly? Otherwise it seems simpler to start from this one, it's 
more commonly used.

(for now I'm getting rid of KonqOperations, the popupmenu is the next step).

PS: I just found out that kfind uses KonqPopupMenu too - yet another user.
