Description Philipp W 2006-11-22 22:24:50 UTC

Version:           0.12.3 (using KDE 3.5.5, Kubuntu (edgy) 4:3.5.5-0ubuntu3)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.17-10-386

When I click on global status message in the down left corner, the new menü with the status messages opens. But the textfield should be focused. 
Then I can start writing without clicking once more.

And there is no other focus lost due to this.

Its easy and will improve handling even more.

This patch aplies to Kopete from trunk.
It gives keyboard focus to the qlineedit in the global status message menu.

This corrects a disfuncionality introduced that keystrokes to reach other
menuitems behaved weird(excuse bad explanation).
