    Description

      Unless I'm missing something, when using e.g. the built-in beginRemoveRows/endRemoveRows and beginMoveRows/endMoveRows functionality, the logic for updates to persistent model indices appears to be incorrect.

      Here's a simple example to demonstrate, making use of QTreeWidget to minimize the possibility it's my mistake:

      QTreeWidget * tree = new QTreeWidget;
      
      // Top level node:
      QTreeWidgetItem * toplevel = new QTreeWidgetItem({"toplevel"});
      tree->addTopLevelItem(toplevel);
      QModelIndex firstIndex = tree->model()->index(0, 0);
      
      // Add two children:
      QTreeWidgetItem * child1 = new QTreeWidgetItem({"child1"}),
                      * child2 = new QTreeWidgetItem({"child2"});
      toplevel->addChildren({child1, child2});
      tree->expandAll();
      
      // Select child2
      tree->selectionModel()->select(tree->model()->index(1, 0, firstIndex),
                                     QItemSelectionModel::Select);
      
      // Remove child1:
      tree->model()->removeRows(0, 1, firstIndex);
      

      This produces an error:

      QAbstractItemModel::endRemoveRows:  Invalid index ( -1 , 0 ) in model QTreeModel(...)

      ... and then the selection is lost. A similar issue occurs with moveRows, which is where I ran into it (and presumably also with columns).

      The bug doesn't appear to happen if we remove nodes at the top level.
