[Qt-interest] removing items QTreeWidget

[BRM]

Hint: When the user clicks the remove button, get the current selection and store it in another variable; then process that variable to do the actual remove.
Also, if removing multiple items, sort the list by reverse index - highest index to lowest index - so you don't have to keep retrieving the list of selected items.

Ben

P.S.  By doing the above you'll also make your code far more debuggable since you'll now have variables you control that you can monitor to see what
is being done - for example, you'll be able to spot the index values and whether or not it's even returning a valid index (it might not be) or if you're
using a function wrong. I know it's a stylistic thing - but believe me, it really helps to have code that supports debugging instead of code that looks
smart and short; you'll save yourself a lot of time in the long run. Just 2 cents.
