/**
 * Easy updating of menu accels when changing a KAccel object. 
 *
 * Since a KAccel object does not keep track of menu items to which it
 * is connected, we normally have to manually call 
 * KAccel::changeMenuAccel() again for each update of the KAccel object.
 *
 * With KAccelMenuWatch you provide the kaccel object and the menu
 * items to which it connects, and if you update the kaccel you just have
 * to call KAccelMenuWatch::updateMenus() and the menu items will be updated.
 *
 * It is safe to delete menus that have connections handled by this class.
 * On deletion of a menu, all associated accelerators will be deleted.
 *
 * Note that you _have_ to call KAccelMenuWatch::updateMenus() after you
 * connect the * accelerators, as they are not activated till then.
