[PyQt] question about QComboBox

[Phillip Feldman]

It looks as though one cannot apply a stylesheet to the delegate.  Even if
this were possible, it wouldn't help because there is only a single
delegate for the combobox, i.e., one would not be able to apply different
stylesheets to different combobox options.
