I suppose we could use a single tree model, and apply filtering as to whether 
to show only child objects (like dir's), only the attributes of the current 
object (like files in a dir), or both. I guess this would need the ability to 
set filters like QDirModel to get this to work. I'll take a look at it.

I'm already working on it. I just need to get my head around the behaviour of 
canFetchMore() and fetchMore(). I think there is a bug fix coming in Qt 4.2.2 
that will make this work as advertised. I'll keep you posted as I progress 
this.

Cheers,
