What about falling back to the mini icons if I have too many rows ?

I never thought this would not happen - I know Murphys Law ;-)
But still with the mini icons there will be a limit of about
y-resolution / 18, which gives about 33 on the minimum resolution.
The previous implementation had also a hardcoded limit of about
x-resolution / 20, which is 40 on the minimum resolution.
Is that limit acceptable (e.g. telling the user there are more apps which can
not be displayed, e.g. "... other apps not displayed" as last line) ?
I really think that on a large number of apps, this popup will already become
unusable. Therefore I think the above idea with showing only parts is more
than enough.

I already wanted to change the parent widget to be a QFrame.
I'll do this now and play with the framestyles.
