how is it different from the custom properties one?
Design-wise, there are a couple of small differences. There's only one
button next to each row, plus if it's the last row or minus otherwise
(so items can only be added at the end, as I replied to Malini order
hasn't been important so far). A row appears as disabled until it is
edited, and a disabled row is ignored when the view is flushed back to
the model (e.g. when the user presses OK in the dialog).
Code-wise, it's constructed to be reusable, which the custom properties
widget wasn't :)
