I have it as a property, so I need to tell Qt the property has changed.

I could do connect(this, SIGNAL("rowsInserted(...), this, SIGNAL(rowCountChanged());
I could do connect(this, SIGNAL("rowsRemoved(...), this, SIGNAL(rowCountChanged());
+ rowsMoved + layoutChanged + modelReset.. 
so I deemed this easier.

beginInsertRows(QModelIndex(), 0, 1)

is saying you are inserting 2 rows, starting at 0 ending at 1. It's an annoying QAbstractItemModel API.

Also rather than sorting all items after an insert items are inserted in the right place using qLowerBound. Now we have the correct signals we can remove the compression, they won't add anything.
