[Qt-interest] ModelView - QItemEditorFactory not returning correct editor for boolean data?

[Daniel Price]

It is QVariant().toBool().

Even if I return a bool directly I still get a line edit.

Does your view "know" that you are returning a boolean?

Is it a QVariant(...).toBool() or QVariant(QString("true")) or 
QVariant(true) in data()?

According to the documentation,  the view  has a default QItemEditorFactory that recognizes basic types like string and bool and provides appropriate editors. The docs say I should get QComboBoxes for Boolean values. But I don't - I get plain text fields with the text 'true' or 'false' where typing a non-negative number is interpreted as 'true'.
