You can plug an action into anything... as long as the action knows how to
appear ! It won't know, if the parent is a simple QWidget. You need to derive
from KToggleAction and reimplement plug for that case....
You could say that this is a KToggleAction bug/limitation, but well, this hasn't
been needed up to now :-)
