[Interest] QLineEdit and QTableWidget

I'm confused by your last line.  Do you want separate line edits to appear
on each row (create each and use view.setItemWidget), or just the current
row (delegate should be doing this already?), or hovering over the previous
to current row? 

But the start of your requirement sounds more like a combo box that
automatically adds items.  So instead of the delegate creating an edit box
on the current string item, it creates a combo box instead and the item's
value is a string list of people? 

Hope that helps, 

Tony
