Supressed as in:
If I have "plasmoidviewer programmenu" running and start kwrite
with "macStyle=true" the signal windowAdded() is still only emitted one time
by KWindowSystem, as can be seen in the debug output. IIUC there should be
another one for the toplevel menu bar, right?
Other than that things seem to work, the KWrite window is without a displayed
menu bar. Sadly I do not understand what xprop had to tell me, at least I saw
somewhere the KMenuBar window item, helping myself by patching kdelibs to
name the menu bar window with a identifier.
