What functions something like this:
 
   /**
     * If the widget with focus provides a cut() slot, call that slot.  Thus 
for a
     * simple application cut can be implemented as:
     * \code
     * createAutomaticCutAction(actionCollection());
     * \endcode
     */
    KAction *createAutomaticCutAction(KActionCollection *collection) const;


KAction *KMainWindow::createAutomaticCutAction(KActionCollection *collection) 
const
{
    return KStdAction::cut( this, SLOT( invokeEditSlot( SLOT( cut() ) ) ), 
collection );
}
