I know, those are the functional differences. At the implementation level, 
sections are texted separators, and styles that don't implement those will (a 
priori) render just the separator.

The style I use (QtCurve) renders texted separators just fine, but not at the 
top of a menu. That's the issue I'm trying to understand. It's as it it has told 
Qt that it doesn't do texted separators and that there's thus no need to process 
sections (texted separators) at the menu top.

The annoying bit here is that I'm fly fishing in a muddy pool. QtCurve is quite 
a mess code-wise (most styles I've seen are but not to this extent), and I have 
yet to find a clear, succinct but complete tutorial how to write a style.
