[Qt-interest] QThread deletion

[Jonathan Wong]

Though it is good practice to delete unused objects explicitly. Forces us to be mindful of what
resources we grabbed. Old school memory management, but it's safe school. And the practice ports
across to conventional C/C++ programming (without the benefit of QObject).

Wait a sec. I thought you need to call quit() or exit() to get the QThread out of its event loop?
