Hey, to be fair, I think you can do similar things in GtkTreeView by
specifying your own renderer for each column. I don't *think* you
necessarily have to have a 1:1 relationship between treeview columns
and tree models. So *maybe* we could have made the tree model just
contain the pointer to the dive (or the dive index), and not had all
those individual fields there, and then just built up the tree view
columns and have a renderer that looked up the data for each of them.

So the reason we did it like we did in the gtk version was that all
the cell renderer and treeview stuff is %$#! confusing, and I started
out without specialty renderers. I'm not sure it's the only way to do
it, though.
