Sounds to me like you're not integrating plugins into the GUI the right way.
What kind of plugins are they? Are you using KXMLGUIClient? With insertChildClient or \
with factory()->add? Are you passing false to createGUI in order to keep the qdom \
tree around?

You might want to try the second way of using kedittoolbar, i.e. KEditToolbar \
dlg(factory()) so that kedittoolbar can see the plugins. And then you don't need to \
call createGUI.
