This is indeed the nicest solution if you can use it in your application. But 
note that the widget is still subject to clipping from its parents. It could 
be possible that you need to add a widget on top, handle manually the resizing 
and positioning, and use the Qt::WA_TransparentForMouseEvents flag. Not nice, 
but it should work.
