    become blank when docked/undocked, and display garbage in those of its
    regions that some other widgets have moved over.
    
    To fix this, the API of TGT's Painter class had to be slightly modified
    and now mirrors that of Canvas with regard to painting-related
    operations. The paint method has been made protected; it's supposed to
    implement the painting logic and shouldn't be called directly. A public

    associated painters that they need to be redrawn. The default
    implementation simply calls paint() immediately; threaded painters,
    however, override it to schedule render jobs that run in separate
    threads.
    
    All existing threaded painters have been updated to reduce the
    visibility of their paint methods and provide public repaint functions.
    Consequently, QtThreadedCanvas c...
