That new TableView is really going to support models that derive
QAbstractTableModel? Without any changes required on the model side? So if
it works in QTableView (C++ widget) then it will work in the new TableView
(QML component)?
That would be a big win!

Would the view also have transition support?
The current TableView [1] component doesn't have it, the GridView [2]
component does, but it basically only eats list models and requires role
foo..

Do you plan the new TableView to be a styled component (like one of the
many other control components) or a bare component where the user needs to
define the delegates for the contents, header and sidebar?
My preference would be a bare component.

Lots of questions ;)
