The file dialog has a view class which gets the files
in a sorted list. The sorting is done by another class,
so the views don't have to worry about that itself.

But to do to the abstraction from the specific view, I
use the index of the file for example for the completion
or the preselection. All the view gets is highlight(24).
This was no problem with any other class we had so far
that displays lists. But Q_List_View displays _trees_
and it just happens to be a flat tree in kfile, but it's
definitly no list ;(

Greetings, Stephan
