Thanks, Jens,
I posted this same question on StackOverflow. A couple of suggestions
from one commenter, (plus about 10 hours of banging my head against
my keyboard) and I actually came up with a fairly painless way to achieve
this that avoids using the id AND avoids making any assumptions
about the internal ancestry of a delegate.
Rather than duplicating the solution here, you can read about it there:
"Anonymous Access To TableView.":http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23522186/qml-how-to-anonymously-access-to-tableview-from-within-delegates:
It's not quite as straightforward as the exposure of the model to the
delegate, but it's pretty close.
