If I'm thinking right, I would then need to override the data() and setData() functions to translate between the real model and proxy, and the columnCount function to return one additional column. Am I missing anything there? I'll give it a try here in a bit to see what happens. Thanks.

I think that should work, but I am not sure on how to implement the 
mapping functions that are also in the QAbstractProxyModel class in this 
case. Not sure you need them either in your application.
