The latter method seems the better route honestly. or at least I like
it the most. the other one, looks like it doesn't map very well to my
uses...although I can easily be convinced otherwise, if you hate my
api ;p

Okay, so if the data is laid out as you said, in the last example..how
would I display that in the qml view? Since I need to display *both*
the icon and the user's name in the model. Give me something concrete,
please -- as you well know, the docs suck ;-)
