    How expensive is to remove/set again the event filter? Is it just 2 function calls or it does some black and deep magic in qt event loop?
    
    My guess is that if it is cheap (not cpu bound), the advantages of the current implementation (i.e. easy of use for clients) outweigths its ugliness until we find a better way.

    Maybe it pays up to inspect the return value? (from docs: "Returns false if the event was filtered or if the item is disabled. Otherwise returns the value that was returned from the event handler.")

    Is this still required?
