well, when KrView was written, it was supposed to be a single interface

that's why a lot of places actually receive a KrViewItem*, which inside a KrDetailedView,
can only mean KrDetailedViewItem.
basically,
however, i don't remember why there are no static_cast(s) instead of dynamic.
moreover, even if wanting to use the dynamic_cast checking, one has to check for
the pointer being null...
i believe a normal cast is in order, mostly at least.
Hello,
I would like to ask if anything else than KrDetailedViewItem can be
inserted in KrDetailedView.
no.
If no, why are ther so many dynamic_casts in the code?
