Yap, thats right. Things are quite simplified in Qt4. Simplified for the 
programmer, that is :)
If you take care to have sufficient checking for clipping so you don't 
draw things the paint system doesn't want you to draw then its also quite 
a bit faster.

Do note that 90% of the cleverness in QGraphicsView is not in that class 
itself but in Arthur. Which means that all that goodness is reused in all 
KOffice apps without much work at all.
