I thought we had a fix/workaround for something like this in KMail's main(),
when it showed a dialog before creating/showing the mainwindow, and closing
the dialog was leading Qt to emit aboutToQuit. This is all only memory though,
(and we all know how bad mine is) - I couldn't find this anymore in the CVS logs.

Hmm, why do we care about aboutToQuit() in the first place, when we have our
own ref/deref/quit mechanism anyway?
