It would be nice if QAbstractItemModel will support qsizetype instead of int, 
but I do not see how this is possible considering the fact that 
rowCount/columnCount return int. I suppose, it is not very hard to patch 
QModelIndex, but what to do with virtual functions? The user code will break.
The only solution I see is to add QAbstractItemModelV2 with the «wide» 
interface and provide a proxy for the old one.
