QEvent::ApplicationActivate(d) is only used on Qt for Mac OS X. Applications 
in MeeGo will never get it.

QEvent::WindowActivate is used on X11, however. It's sent in response to an 
XFocusIn or EnterNotify events. Its counterpart (QEvent::WindowDeactivate) is 
sent to windows when XFocusOut and LeaveNotify are received as well as when 
XFocusIn and EnterNotify are sent to other windows.

However, a window being deactivated in X doesn't mean it's no longer visible. 
Writing applications that stop painting when they get deactivated may lead to 
bizarre results, especially outside of MeeGo.
