Change the first line of changeFont() to...
f = QFont(self.__lab.font())
...so that it is closer to what C++ would do.
SIP doesn't enforce "const". I've been mulling over this for a while. SIP
could enforce "const" so that the call to setBold() would raise an exception.
The disadvantage is that existing apps may break - but, then again, they are
broken anyway.
An alternative might be to automatically make a copy under the covers so that
wrapped C++ instances are never const.
