It's not that easy - QColumnView is practically abandoned upstream (with its huge amount of bugs it received basically no fixes at all), I really dislike the upstream contribution process (not really a valid reason, I know, but it would definitely make it much harder to fix bugs) and KColumnView breaks compatibility in certain ways. Anyway, I did not totally abandon that idea, but it really needs some testing before attempting upstreaming it. I really tried hard to make QColumnView work properly, but it's just impossible.
