Review request for kdelibs and KDE Usability.


Changes
-------

Stupid Review Board discarded my code comments .. damnit, publish already!


Description
-------

This makes the KIconDialog (the dialog where you can choose icons for eg. folders) \
respect the global icon size. Almost all sizes were hardcoded but the patch does away \
with all of this and works fine with all icon sizes and big font sizes. Also made it \
aware of FontMetrics (atm with bigger fonts, they also get clipped) and adjusts the \
grid height accordingly.

Was fun diving into that "ancient" code :)


Diffs
-----

  kio/kfile/kicondialog.cpp b7d646f 

Diff: http://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/108504/diff/


Testing (updated)
-------

Yup, see screenshot.

The only issue that remains is the initial size of the dialog to make it show 4 rows \
of icons. In the current implementation it just adds another 100px to the dialog \
height (cf. line 490), which is easy, if all the sizes are known and fixed, but with \
variing sizes this becomes an issue and I could not think of a proper solution. I \
probably need to add a sizeHint (tried in the private class, didn't help there)? The \
easiest but not neccessarily best solution would be to just set the minimumHeight to \
4 rows and done.
