QObject::thread() returns "the thread in which the object lives." That's a
little vague but that means " the thread in which the object was created", no?
In this case that would cause a DirectConnection to be used, which supposedly
isn't right for signals sent from another thread.
The issue is reproducible (only the project toplevel directory is loaded when
using Qt::QueuedConnection explicitly). It turns out though that the finished and
entries signals are sent from code that appears to be running on the thread that
created the FileManagerListJob instance. That explains why a DirectConnection is
safe (but not why a QueuedConnection isn't?)
@Sven: didn't you remark that the project also imports the build directory? I
saw that happen printing the payload of the entries signals. I guess we could
apply the project filter in addJobItems(), no?
