Sure, that was my first take as well. Now, if that was linked to the need of 
the scripting API. AFAIK none of the scripting engine are using that, the one 
which would have needed it would have been the qtscript one I think, but since 
it's taking a new direction it seems, I'm not so sure anymore.

In any case, the 10 mins worth of work were done before I discussed with Rich. 
I didn't commit because I'm now pondering which is better, removing them or 
committing what I have now.

That indeed looks like a couple of non-virtual methods are required. Doesn't 
sood too hard, at least on the API front, implementation might be another 
story.
