This hack has some disadvantages too. I made small investigation into a 
QCommonStyle and it's inherited styles to find solution for that particular 
feature in Qt.

Is it possible to add new values to QStyleOptionViewItemV2::ViewItemFeature? 
Something like ViewItemFeature::WrapAnywhere and 
ViewItemFeature::WrapAtWordBoundaryOrAnywhere ? Or this is an awful hack?

Better solution is to introduce QStyleOptionViewItemV5 with WordWrap property, 
but i'm not sure how views should use it. Should new "wordWrapMode" property be 
added to views (and should be "wordWrap" prop deprecated) or this feature can 
only be used in custom views?
Also, there's a problem in QCommonStylePrivate::viewItemSize method - it bounds 
text rect to icon rect, but normally text should take more place than the icon. 
If QListView::gridSize prop is set, it should be bounded to that grid size 
instead (and optionV5 should have gridSize prop too?). However, i don't know 
what should be the bound in case when no grid size is specified. Maybe pixel 
width of the longest word in the text (bad approximation, because it almost 
same as "word wrap").

So, should any patches be applied to Qt styles and if yes - how?
