 * @short A line editor for restricted character sets.
 *
 * The KRestrictedLine widget is a variant of QLineEdit which
 * accepts only a restricted set of characters as input.
 * All other characters will be discarded and the signal invalidChar()
 * will be emitted for each of them.
 *
 * Valid characters can be passed as a QString to the constructor
 * or set afterwards via setValidChars().
 * The default key bindings of QLineEdit are still in effect.
 *
 * This is almost like setting a QRegExpValidator on a KLineEdit;
 * the difference is that with KRestrictedLine it can all be done in Qt designer.
