Somebody cleaned up the page. I added some more documentation and
explanation. For example about proxy classes and custom models.

I also created a sample here: http://pastebin.com/500098

Try the same sample without the fixed-width properties of the columns
and without the fixed-row-height properties of the treeview.

The result will be that in the background, a lot rows will be processed.

This is something you don't want to let happen on the Nokia 770, as this
would take enormous amounts of (mainly) I/O and CPU processing time in
case the instances in de list model are proxy classes and/or in case
you've created a custom model with 'lazy' getters.

I'll add this E-mail to the document . . .
