Oh, _that_ is how Qt does checkbox lists? Oh dear, that plain sucks. Not only
does it not allow multiselect via keyboard, you have to click the checkbox to
select it!
Okay, hm, that changes things... This implementation is indeed worse than a
listbox in some ways.
So I'd say: If we can have a widget which combines the easy selection of a
list box with the discoverability and accessibility, I'd prefer that for every
case.
If we can have only either a list view or that crappy checkbox list, when we
indeed have to choose based on the specific situation.
