mh... I remember well, in qt3 designer you could simply specify to add 
to a form a widget you created (e.g., with designer itself) by 
specifying the name of the class; then the widget was not rendered 
correctly inside designer, but it was actually inserted in the generated 
class.  Thus, this does not hold anymore in qt4 designer?  You're forced 
to build a qt designer plugin?
