[Development] Problem with QML garbage collection (Qt 5.15)

Hi there!
I think I'm experiencing an issue related to
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-50319
In my case, I have a C++ method returning a new QObject, which has
automatic Javascript ownership. This is fine, because indeed I want to
have my object managed by the QML engine.
Then I'm passing the object as a property to a subpage, and also storing
it into a ListModel (by calling append()). If I navigate to the subpage
where I passed my object as a property, I can see that it is working
fine. If I then navigate to another page where I have a ListView
operating on that ListModel where I added my object, that works fine as
well.
The problem happens when I navigate back from the page with the
ListView. It seems to me, that when that page gets destroyed my object
gets destroyed as well, despite being still used in the ListModel (which
is never getting destroyed).
I'm working around this by setting the ownership to C++ and never
actually destroying the objects (since I have few of them anyways), but
I suspect that this might be a bug in the garbage collection.
Ciao,
Alberto
