/**
  @brief Makes it possible to share a selection in multiple views which do not have the same source model

  Although <a href="http://doc.trolltech.com/4.6/model-view-view.html#sharing-selections-between-views">multiple views can share the same QItemSelectionModel</a>, the views then need to have the same source model.

  If there is a proxy model between the model and one of the views, or different proxy models in each, this class makes
  it possible to share the selection between the views.

  @image html kproxyitemselectionmodel-simple.png "Sharing a QItemSelectionModel between views on the same model is trivial"
  @image html kproxyitemselectionmodel-error.png "If a proxy model is used, it is no longer possible to share the QItemSelectionModel directly"
  @image html kproxyitemselectionmodel-solution.png "A KLinkItemSelectionModel can be used to map the selection through the proxy model"

  @code
    QAbstractItemModel *model = getModel();

    QSortFilterProxyModel *proxy = new QSortFilterProxyModel();
    proxy->setSourceModel(model);

    QTreeView *view1 = new QTreeView(splitter);
    view1->setModel(model);

    KLinkItemSelectionModel *view2SelectionModel = new KLinkItemSelectionModel( proxy, view1->selectionModel());

    QTreeView *view2 = new QTreeView(splitter);
    // Note that the QAbstractItemModel passed to KLinkItemSelectionModel must be the same as what is used in the view
    view2->setModel(proxy);
    view2->setSelectionModel( view2SelectionModel );
  @endcode

  @image html kproxyitemselectionmodel-complex.png "Arbitrarily complex proxy configurations on the same root model can be used"

  @code
    QAbstractItemModel *model = getModel();

    QSortFilterProxyModel *proxy1 = new QSortFilterProxyModel();
    proxy1->setSourceModel(model);
    QSortFilterProxyModel *proxy2 = new QSortFilterProxyModel();
    proxy2->setSourceModel(proxy1);
    QSortFilterProxyModel *proxy3 = new QSortFilterProxyModel();
    proxy3->setSourceModel(proxy2);

    QTreeView *view1 = new QTreeView(splitter);
    view1->setModel(proxy3);

    QSortFilterProxyModel *proxy4 = new QSortFilterProxyModel();
    proxy4->setSourceModel(model);
    QSortFilterProxyModel *proxy5 = new QSortFilterProxyModel();
    proxy5->setSourceModel(proxy4);

    KLinkItemSelectionModel *view2SelectionModel = new KLinkItemSelectionModel( proxy5, view1->selectionModel());

    QTreeView *view2 = new QTreeView(splitter);
    // Note that the QAbstractItemModel passed to KLinkItemSelectionModel must be the same as what is used in the view
    view2->setModel(proxy5);
    view2->setSelectionModel( view2SelectionModel );
