+Typically an application's "main window" will be a KMainWindow or
+a subclass of KMainWindow (KMainWindow provides simple mechanisms
+for constructing mens, toolbars, statusbars, etc). The problem with
+using KMainWindow in a System Tray application is that when
+KMainWindow is closed, it also shuts down KApplication and the
+program terminates.
+
+One way around that (not necessarily the best way - see systray1.py)
+is to make the "main window" a QWidget or other QWidget subclass
+that's not KMainWindow.
