Thanks (both Ulrich and Mark), that's it!
I re-read that part of the docs at least twice, and still didn't
notice that :(. And the book I'm using adds the action to a
toolbar/menubar, no mention of what to do when the application has
neither.

Btw, is there any difference using QAction over QShortcut, for
applications that don't have toolbar/menubar?
