I can't find the task for it, which might be needed in order to fix it
;). When the engine internals finish being re-written again we'll have
a chance to fix it, so raise a task if it's not there.

I don't think the problem though would be that we're not using the
QVariant API (I think it's correct to leave it as a variant), it's
that QList<QObject*> is mapping to QVariant(QObjectList) in script
instead of array<Object>. QObjectList would be reasonable to deal with
specially for the read-only case, we just need to be able to block
writing to it (because for a writable list you should be using
QQmlListProperty).

It could be that last caveat which has been blocking implementation
for so long. Maybe even with V4 the change will be impractical to
implement, but it's worth checking out.
