Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2015-04-25 21:15:57 UTC 
The expandable job details collapse when a job finishes, or a new one appears.

This is due to the model of the JobDelegate Repeater being bound to jobSource.sources which is exposed to QML as a JavaScript Array. When it changes for any reason, all the delegates are destroyed and re-created because QML cannot track contents of JS items, only a re-assignment of the whole thing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a copy job
2. Expand its details by clicking on plus, preferrably click the pin icon to better observe the behavior
3. Start another copy job

Actual Results:  
The details collapse

Expected Results:  
The details stay opened

Git commit bc5c47537f3bbb706b3fe7af66508f5ef2fadc6e by Kai Uwe Broulik.

Pushed by broulik into branch 'Plasma/5.3'.

Manually keep track of jobs sources

DataSources source is a QStringList property which means changes within cannot be tracked
causing all the job delegates to be destroyed and re-created when sourcesChanged is emitted.
This is pretty wasteful and also causes the delegates to lose their state (eg. details expanded)
