Not really. Too early, possibly ;)

Yes. This is default behavior in Qt3's QIconView: the drop target is painted just as if
it had keyboard focus, which is indeed not very visible when dragging another item (with
a similar outline) on top of it.

In Qt4, hmm, everything is still possible ;) I see a "drop indicator rect" in QListView but
I can't get it to show up.... we can surely paint anything else we want though, things got
much more flexible. I'll try to remember this when I come to it.
