There are two approaches you can take with QSortFilterProxyModel. The
easiest is to just create an instance and then use the setFilter*()
methods. Alternatively, create a QSortFilterProxyModel subclass and
reimplement filterAcceptsRow() returning True for rows that should be
accepted and False for those that should be dropped.

BTW I devote four chapters of my forthcoming book, "Advanced Qt
Programming", to Qt's model/view classes---the book is C++-based but
many of the concepts and idioms can easily be translated into PyQt.
