Again, I would develop in python the GUI only, not the base functions ;)

Tell me what in the QBrowser class cannot be done in python, it's just a
container. It uses the QgsBrowserModel and some other Qt based classes
I can easily handle in python without any problem.

I don't think the QBrowser code makes particular GUI widgets/functions we
should insert in app/core/gui. Different would be if you had developed a
QgsBrowser tree widget implementing also the QgsLegend interface, as
everybody could reuse that.

However, discussing it we're also going to find what the current
implementation
misses and what should be changed, doesn't matter if at the end it will be
done in C++ or python. It will be Martin who has to decide.

No other devs want to partecipate to the discussion? ;)
I think that a lot of interesting things are coming out.

Regards.
