In some situations, KDirLister didn't gave me the functionality I needed.

I tried that hard also, but I never understood how KDialogBase works, and how to integrate it with QtDesigner. I missed some code-versus-screenshots in the documentation, plus KDialog-QTDesigner-howto integration. > o I agree with Christian that the items should go in a submenu.

I would like to have some Musicman actions in the "Tools" menu also, but looks like this is a completelly different kind of plugin, based on KXMLGUIClient.
