A view in Qt is just that: A view. It (mostly) doesn't manage the
underlying data.

You provide data by setting a model on it, e.g. a QStandardItemModel
or your own QAbstractListModel subclass.

For simpler things, it might be easier to use QListWidget instead,
which is basically a QListView with integrated model (and has a
addItem method).
