My preference: a line break after a function defenition if the defenition contained (doxygen) documentation above it's definition.

Some - very few! - do:
http://lxr.kde.org/source/frameworks/kactivities/src/common/database/Database.h
http://lxr.kde.org/source/frameworks/kactivities/src/service/Activities.h
http://lxr.kde.org/source/frameworks/kcompletion/src/kcompletionmatches.h
http://lxr.kde.org/source/frameworks/plasma-framework/src/declarativeimports/platformcomponents/utils/d_ptr.h *
In general: some classes use it, the vast majority doesn't. In this modern C++11 world where we have smart pointers, we should use them. It's way to easy to forget a delete statement.
It might not be the current practice to use them, but it certainly is time (with C++14 available these days!) to start using it.
* ok, this is a custom D_PTR class. More info on that can be found here: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.frameworks/4644

Maybe it's statically known (like in the first app I wrote this for), or it's replicating what a QHeaderView does at report-generation time (like in the app I'm writing this for right now, see FatCRM on github) (*), and only in a possible third case there would be a need for separating reordering and hiding...

It's not hairy, but i see why you think it is. You're assuming that setColumnHidden hides the _source_ column. That's not how i read your API.
You have setSourceColumns(QVector<int>() << 2 << 1).
Then you have setColumnHidden(2, true)* which in my view hides the second _proxy_ column, not the source column. If it hides the source column the name should reflect that (eg setSourceColumnHidden).
Think of it this way, if you use the Qt class QSortFilterProxyModel and you call index(row, col) on that class, you get the QModelIndex from the _proxy_, not the _source_, right? Or i'm very wrong and need to refresh my Qt Model knowledge when a proxy is involved ;-)
