Description
-------

The lancelot main window sets the _KDE_NET_WM_SHADOW property to "1" but never set anything valid to it and therefore has no drop shadow.
This patch add the shadow when using a qt style that is aware of the KDE shadow hint in the widget's property. I haven't found a documentation for this property but it seems that they are recognized by oxygen and are also copied to qtcurve (and probably bespin, haven't checked).
A better solution might be using the plasma shadow although I don't know how to do that without copying the code to install shadows from kdelibs, unless someone adds a new api to apply plasma themed shadows to a window.

Compiles.
Have shadow with both oxygen and qtcurve.


Thanks,
