When implementing a C++ model, calling beginRemoveRows(), removing the first item (row = 0), and then calling endRemoveRows(), causes the TableView to update incorrectly. The TableView will create empty space at the location of the removed item (see attached screenshot).

QML also outputs this error message:
file:///usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.0/imports/QtDesktop/TableView.qml:484:5: QML QWheelArea_QML_110: Binding loop detected for property "verticalValue"
