FileChooser QML/C++ Widget Object

It implements a QML widget where a user can enter a file name or click on the find button to open the system dialog to find the file. Then, the full file path, returned by the system dialog, is converted from the qrc notation to a short path based on user's home directory, in OS dependent way in C++.

So this is a demonstration of a really complicated way of removing a prefix from a string, posted in to QtQuick forum because that is fashionable?
