This seems like a decent solution, although I'm not very keen on the idea that I need two C++ and one QML models to show a list of files in a directory. Thank you, though!

I'm wondering if there's an explanation for the ``setRootPath()`` method actually _not_ changing the model root. I feel like it would be way cleaner that way, but I suppose there's a good reason.
