I have started to write some code just for testing the view/model 
architecture. Probably I will attach my test code the following days, so you 
can have a look.

Yes, as Tobias mentioned there is a contact model, I could start by 
implementing a ContactTreeModel for example, which contains all the contacts 
related code. But the contacts model should not change the behaviour of the 
tree widget.

This code must also be ported regarding K3ListView and QTreeView. It could be 
changed in the ContactTreeModel for example.

I will try this in my test code.

My idea is to use a popup menu like it is used in the folder tree of kmail.
