This patch was singled out as the one causing a regression for skins2 (a
user of qt4 menus),
 namely skins2 yet again crashing at exit on both win32 and Linux.

When using qFindChild, are we sure there is a unique direct child for an
action ?
Technically, there could be multiple ones, in which case the one being
deleted 
is may still be addressed elsewhere.  (qt4 doc seems to say it is
undefined in this case)

As a matter of fact, just reverting this patch does solve the problem.

Was this patch correcting a specific issue or just intended as a
cosmetic ?
