just for the record, while working on the qml widget explorer i had to improve 
the Menu bindings, now a complete definition of a qmenu feeded by a model with 
submenus is possible

btw, the fact that is aqmenu is a detail, with the design i have in mind when 
using the mobile components the same applet would weirdly look like kickoff :p

so, a classic menu in qml would definitely be possible, i'm not really going 
to do it, but if someone fancies trying, they're welcome :p

Cheers,
Marco Martin
