Thanks for all the help. Here's what I did:

1. Inherited from QStandardItem to support a carrying custom payload
2. Created a QStandardModel and added items to it
3. Created a QSortFilterProxyModel and used it as you suggested
4. Added an event filter for the search text box to pass on key-board 
navigation (up/down/enter etc.) events to the list box

Everything's fine, except for one doubt. I add new items to the list by 
doing:
MyItemClass *item  = new MyItemClass;
model->addRow(0, item);

How do I make sure that these dynamically allocated item objects are 
deleted? Deleting the model or the view object doesn't seem to delete 
the item objects. Any idea?

thanks and regards,
