In addition to Mandeeps reply, I am just wondering what the point of the 
construction above is. Why keep a hash with a little bit of data on your 
requests around at all? NAM inherits QObject. That means that it also 
has dynamic property capabilities. Why not store the additional data you 
want to keep with the NAM with the NAM itself? That also frees you from 
having to maintain a hash with additional data at all.
