One of the tests that I made was to see what widgets in the kdeapi didn't have 
screenshots.  Thinking about it some more I enhanced kuiviewer in kdesdk to 
take screenshots.  So now you only have to make ui files for all the kde 
widgets and then we can generate images of them in any or all themes we want, 
whenever we want :)

./kuiviewer kled.ui -s kled.png -style Keramek

<!DOCTYPE UI><UI><widget class="KLed">
    <property name="geometry">
        <rect>
            <width>100</width>
            <height>100</height>
        </rect>
    </property>
</widget></UI>

Some uses I thought of:
- -For applications whos configure dialogs are made up of ui files the 
documentation could generate the images rather then having to be done by 
hand.
- -For people who write themes or show off themes on such as on kde-look.org.  
Generating screenshots to compare/show all the different themes would be a 
snap.

Anyway figured someone else might have some uses for this capability too, so I 
though I would share.
