[PyQt] Background color for cells in QTableView

[Marc Rossi]

I have a model/view app with a QTableView that I would like to have columns
2, 3 & 4 shaded a different color than the rest.  My model sub-classes
QAbstractTableModel and I also use a QSortFilterProxyModel.   I assumed I
could just override the data() method in my QAbstractTableModel derived
class, returning the correct QBrush when called with role =
Qt.BackgroundRole, but my data method NEVER gets called with this role.
I currently use a stylesheet to set the entire background of the QTableView.

Not a Qt expert by any means but when I call model.roleNames() and print out
the results I only see roles 0-5, no role 8 (Background).  Not sure if this
call returns all roles supported by the model or if it is just there as a
utility func.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
