Thanks for the response - I thought that might be the case. I was just
surprised that there wasn't an exception, though I imagine it would be very
slow to check every parameter was within int bounds.

Looking at the trolltech docs for qt4.2, it appears internalId() returns a
qint64 now. Should this mean that internalId() should now work with 64 bit
python Ids?
