Ok, here it is.  The QObject stuff is moved into a private QObject so doesn't 
burden the other items.  The redraw is as fixed as it is ever going to get 
without changing qt or fiddling with the parent listview widget - there's 
some barely noticable jittering, but that's it.  Apart from that, it behaves 
well for me, and noticeably improves the usability of the widget :)

So, now it needs some thorough testing...  apply patch in 
languages/cpp/debugger.

Cheers,
Hamish.
