Ah, thanks for the explanation. 

I don't want to completely rely on Qt 4.5 though, since we'd like to release 
the networkmanager applet also for distros that rely on Qt 4.4. From what I 
can see though, I need to get the ExtenderItem to understand that its size has 
changed, and pass that information up to ExtenderApplet?
