This is good for performance in terms of avoiding unnecessary
database activity and keeping the cache smaller.
Detail:
This change was not included in the big refactoring of QSqlTM. The
idea was that the model shouldn't second guess the intention of the
application and maybe the application wants to cause a submit.
It was a marginal consideration.
Now I think it's clear that our interest in not unnecessarily
expanding the cache outweighs that. In addition, applications can now
call selectRow() if they worry that the database values for the row
have changed and want to set a value back again.
Test added.
