I apparently exposed a bug in PyQt by manually setting the 'current' row 
in the file list via the API.  That's what was causing the last item to 
be toggled.  I checked in a work-around on the tip.  The tip also has a 
new perforce back-end.

The gray color is just the normal (unselected) background.  It 
alternates between gray and white between rows as a visual aid.  I may 
turn this off.

I think I agree.  I'll have another look at hgct and how it added in 
those checkboxes.  Unfortunately, this was one of the parts of Qt which 
changed substantially from qt3 to qt4.
