[PySide] QStyledItemDelegate ignores StyleSheet?

thoimej

I am subclassing a QStyledItemDelegate to draw a pixmap in the center of a QTableView's cell but when I implement my delegate I lose all stylesheet customizations and the QTableView is rendered with the default system settings.

Here's what I do: I create a delgate...
@
class MyStyleDelegate(QtGui.QStyledItemDelegate):
def init(self, parent=None):
super(MyStyleDelegate, self).init(parent)
@

It's a barebones class and I set it to the column delegate of my QTableView
@
self.view.setItemDelegateForColumn(0, MyStyleDelegate(self.parent()))
@

Now, when I run my application my style sheet is respected - but when I start to override functions, like:
@
class MyStyleDelegate(QtGui.QStyledItemDelegate):
def init(self, parent=None):
super(MyStyleDelegate, self).init(parent)

def paint(self, painter, option, index):
    super(MyStyleDelegate, self).paint(painter, option, index)

@

(again, just a barebones function calling the base class) I lose all stylesheet customizations.

Why?

And how can I implement a StyleDelegate that will respect the style sheet by default?

After working with some examples found on the web, my paint function looks like this now. My understanding the below code should render - but respect the stylesheet.
@
def paint(self, painter, option, index):
super(MyStyleDelegate, self).paint(painter, option, index)

    modelIndex = index
    model = index.model()
    if isinstance(model, QtGui.QAbstractProxyModel):
        modelIndex = model.mapToSource(index)

    options = QtGui.QStyleOptionViewItemV4(option)
    self.initStyleOption(options, index)
    style = options.widget.style() if options.widget else  QtGui.QApplication.style()  
    style.drawControl(style.CE_ItemViewItem, options, painter, options.widget)
    QtGui.QStyledItemDelegate.paint(self, painter, option, modelIndex)

Some thing of interest - my options.widget is always None. Would that have the the effect that I'm seeing?
