The attached itty bitty program queries the user twice - once with a dialog 
constructed through createKMessageBox, and once with questionYesNoCancel.  
Here, I get (for instance) output like this:

tester: WARNING: Return 256
tester: WARNING: Return 3

after clicking on the "yes" button both times. I'd expect it to return the 
same value in both cases. The reason this is not so is clear: 
createKMessageBox returns the button ids from the KDialog directly, while 
questionYesNoCancel returns a translated button code. Since both methods have 
the same return type int and the return value is undocumented, it's a bit 
confusing. If there's a docs guru who feels like frobbing this , please do so 
- -- otherwise, if no objections, I'll add a blurb myself.

Don't worry, 't ain't no shame to be stupid - ol' mouse.
