So if I did that, would the process be - turn my tuple into a QVarient, put
it into the data engine, then, in the QML side grab it and turn it back into
a PyObject?

Although maybe that's not necessary.  If I have it as a text file with XML
structure, perhaps QML will just read that straight from the data engine?
 (Without needing it to be a python object?)  I have to review my code and
see if I need the tuple or if I can change my code a bit so it just needs
the XML.
