* It shows the list of available plugins on top (if there's more than one
* category this is a TabWidget) and the configuration of the selected plugin
* below that.
*
* Since the user needs a way to know what a specific plugin does every plugin
* sould install a desktop file containing a name, comment and category field.
* The category is usefull for applications that can use different kinds of
* plugins like a playlist, skin or visualization.
*
* The location of these desktop files is the
* share/apps/<instancename>/<plugindir> directory. But if you need
* you may use a different directory.
*
* Often a program has more than one kind of plugin. In that case you want to
* make a visible distinction between those plugins. All you have to do is to
* create a KPluginSelectionWidget for every category and then add them all
* to the KPluginSelector.
