brilliant; another place of threading performance improvement possibility will 
be to put all the dataengines in their own thread ... most of the interaction 
with engines happens via signal/slot and is assumed to be async so it should 
be fairly easy .. 

connectSource() will need some work, but it shouldn't be too difficult.

the query() method is one of the very few that might cause problems and 
require some re-jigging as it's a direct, assumed-to-be-synchronous call.

we may be able to either get rid of query() all together or just make it 
signal-driven as well.
