3. Open plugin config dialog
Actual Results:  
The config dialog gets its own entry in the task bar.

Expected Results:  
The config dialog should *not* get its own entry in the task bar.

The issue seems to be that the dialog is created without a parent -- in contrast to the about dialogs which work fine without a separate taskbar entry. Setting a parent after the creation does not solve it. I'm afraid we have to change virtual QDialog *configDialog() = 0; in DialogConfigurationInterface.h to take a QWidget* parent parameter to fix it.
