Another suggestion: Get rid if the aliases; use the fully-qualified 
types instead.

I'm always irritated if I open the documentation of QVariantList from 
within Qt Creator, and land on the QVariant docu instead. I'm interested 
in the features of the container, not the contained type.

And I have to remember if QStringList is the same as as QList<QString>, 
or if it's actually a different container with a different API.
