Yeah.. digging deeper I realise that QAbstractProxyModel doesn't even bridge 
the signals from the sourceModel through to to outside.. so it makes more 
problems than it solves.

Thank you, that's really good to know.

It would still be nice if there was a basic QAbstractDecoratorProxyModel 
base class that didn't have all the overhead of the QSortFilterProxyModel.

As an alternative I'm also investigating whether I can rejig my item 
delegate to do everything I was trying to do with my proxy model.

Thank you

Ross.
