First thing that springs to mind is a very simple proxy model that overrides 
the data() function for the Qt::TextAlignmentRole for the column that you wish 
to customise.

Probably best to inherit your proxy model from QSortFilterProxyModel to save 
yourself some headaches.

I agree that this type of presentational customisation should be handled by 
the views rather than the models though. To me, the model data should not 
include things like text colour, alignment etc.

HTH,
