This looks like the wrong approach to me. The shadow gets installed by the widget \
style, but lancelot does not use a normal Qt style, but a Plasma style. Because of \
that it would need to use the plasma shadow (e.g. "panel shadow"). The idea of having \
the shadow being controlled by the style was to not use a generic shadow for any \
window as before, but to allow windows to use a shadow matching the window content. \
This would fall back to a "generic" approach.

Please also add ivan to the review.
