	It seems to do with focus.  The app the plugin is for does an awful lot of customization, so it's probably related to that.  What I've just found that works is to have a slot wired to the list views signal of change.  In that method (where I populate the fields anyway) I call setFocus() on each line edit, then it works.

	It's working for the time being, but I need to investigate further.
