I see. But isn't that a inconsistency, since protected methods can still 
be called from javascript, and even private ones can be called with 
QMetaObject::invokeMethod()? Don't get me wrong, I don't want to be 
pedantic and basically I'm happy with it. I'm just curious and want to 
fully understand. :-)
