Look out for the upcoming cvs-addition of the KDockWidget-set to
kdelibs/kdeui!

We will commit Maxim Judin's dockwidget set of KDEStudio. Currently, it
is being adapted to the KDE naming convention... and I hope it's getting
in the kdelibs until the source freeze.

Otherwise, if you wanted the dock/undock feature in an MDI application,
the best decision would be to take the QextMDI widget-set.
