Bug Description

Every time I click on the QuickAccess plasmoid, it opens looking like this:
http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/310/quickaccess.png

and then instantly the whole plasma workspace crashes (going black for an
instant and then restarting, although without triggering DrKonqi).

I've tried removing and reinstalling the plasmoid and there has already been an
update to the plasmoid since the problem appeared.

I'm using:
Kubuntu Lucid AMD 64
KDE 4.5 Beta 2 (problem existed with B1 as well, but not 4.4)
QT 4.7.0~beta1+git20100522

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on quickaccess plasmoid

Actual Results:
Plasma workspace crashes

Expected Results:
Plasma workspace doesn't crash

I'm also seeing this on beta 2, using Gentoo. A recompilation of the plasmoid renders the same results :(.

This is actually a KDE bug. Should be fixed next 4.5 prerelease, though.
