My apologies, I misread the code. I thought it was testing for a script
engine if it had successfully opened the .ui file, which meant it would
screw up the automatic display of the dialog. In fact it is only testing for
the scripting engine if it has failed to open the .ui file, which shouldn't
normally happen anyway. Damn, this has been bugging me for no reason every
since I first saw (and misread it).

Anyhow if a .ui file has somehow gone missing when it was originally found
in the package, it is just as bad for a scripting applet as for a c++ one.
But that is very minor compared with the problem I thought we had, but
actually don't..
