OK, I will commit the code this evening. It may not be perfect, but at least it 
is usable. As I have said earlier, the method can simply be turned into an empty
inlined method later when (and if) kwm can do it in order not to break existing
code (I will use it asap ;)

I will also use it the the extended DialogBase (if I can get it into the kdeui)
I have already reimplemented setCaption() so the app Programmer will,
when using this base class, just use setCaption(captionWithNoAppName) anyway.
