[Qt-interest] does WA_ShowWithoutActivating work with QMainWindow?

[Cecilia Castillo]

Well, I run on a Mac, but I use x11 to open a window on a linux box 
and I launch the app from there.  But we want to be able to do this 
from all the platforms we support (Mac, linux, aix) either directly 
on that platform or via a x11 window.
