[Panel-devel] [PATCH] Plasma::Dialog

[Sebastian Kuegler]

So I've reworked the dialogue enough to be fit for inclusion from my point of 
view. I'd like someone to look over first, though.

The main changes from Alexis' version is that the positioning code has now 
moved into the dialogue itself, since it looked pretty gross. (Sorry!) 
Nothing you want to copy from applet to applet anyway.

So currently, you can use it as follows from an applet:

#include <plasma/dialog.h>

dialog = new Plasma::Dialog();
// Fill the dialog with widgets and layouts al gusto
dialog->position(event, boundingRect(), mapToScene(boundingRect().topLeft()));
dialog->show();

I'm thinking of adding a convenience method to add a UI file which then gets 
set as mainWidget, but the class itself is pretty usable right now. The next 
step would be to port Alexis' devicenotifier to use this class, too. I first 
would like to know if it looks good this way, though.

In the screenshot, you see that the dialogue gets a shadow that looks a bit 
out of place (other plasma elements don't have this shadow), is there an easy 
way to avoid this, like using different default WindowFlags?

Can I commit this? (Comment is of course also welcome and will be addressed.)
