I tried the same example with python 3.3.0, and it seems to work as 
expected.

I'm guessing there might be quite a few issues stemming from differences 
between Python 2 and 3 like this.

Is it worth reporting them at the moment? Perhaps it might be better to 
keep them back until it's been decided whether Python 2 is going to be 
supported for Qt5?
