Your approach at whole must be changed. You can't just insert the old items
somewhere else - they have a 1:n parent-relation that would be changed -
either crashing, or simply removing your item from your old menu.

What you need is a different means to create the items - some
factory/function that gets passed a QPopupMenu and adds all the items,
together with the connectrions and so on. You then invoke that on the other
menu.
