[Qgis-developer] extensions to postgis dialog

[Tim Sutton]

Hi

Could I suggest using Qt model/view for this - whever list become lone
I think the model / view approach will always be more efficient. It
also has QSortFilterProxModel by which you can easily add sorting and
filtering.

I was going to suggest also that we create src/models and src/views
for any custom models and views we create.

Regards

Tim
