Update for those interested:
1) Plasmoid renamed to menubar, still in playground.
2) If programs are already running, before the menubar plasmoid is started,
their toplevel menus are found and (after adapting the code to the fact that
QX11EmbedContainer::embedClient() is asynchronous) embedded.
Current Problems:
1) Menu bars just show up as a grey rectangle, no content.
2) Menu bars of programs started after the plasmoid still are ignored by
KWindowSystem.
