/**
* @brief This class facilitates easy mapping of indexes and selections through proxy models.
*
* In a complex system of proxy models there can be a need to map indexes and selections between them,
* and sometimes to do so without knowledge of the path from one model to another.
*
* For example,
*
* @verbatim
* Root model
* |
* / \
* Proxy 1 Proxy 3
* | |
* Proxy 2 Proxy 4
* @endverbatim
*
* If there is a need to map indexes between proxy 2 and proxy 4, a KModelIndexProxyMapper can be created
* to facilitate mapping of indexes between them.
*
* @code
* m_indexMapper = new KModelIndexProxyMapper(proxy2, proxy4, this);
*
* ...
*
* const QModelIndex proxy4Index = m_mapLeftToRight(proxy2->index(0, 0));
* Q_ASSERT(proxy4Index.model() == proxy4);
* @endcode
*
* Note that the aim is to achieve black box connections so that there is no need for application code to
* know the structure of proxy models in the path between left and right and attempt to manually map them.
*
* @verbatim
* Root model
* |
* ---------------
* | Black Box |
* ---------------
* | |
* Proxy 2 Proxy 4
* @endverbatim
