QSortFilterProxyModel: crash sometimes when adding rows from the source model - qt

Question

I am writing a Qt application that includes a table view which displays the tasks performed by different persons. There is a column per person, and a row per day. The view is initialized with 26 rows from today minus 10 days to today +15 days. App overview When the vertical scrollbar is at min or max and that the user makes an action to move up/down, 10 new rows (i.e. days) are added on top/bottom. The problem is that sometimes it crashes at that time because of some internal QPersistentModelIndex issues, but only since I added a QSortFilterProxyModel between the source model and the view to display only the days where someone has a task to do.
The function calls propagate as follows:
the view (of type DashboardTableView) emits the signal "wantToGoMoreUp" or "wantToGoMoreDown"
-> DashboardWidget::slotAskDataUp or slotAskDataDown
-> DashboardTableModel::addDaysOnTop or addDaysOnBottom
I tried:
with a custom model instead of a QSortFilterProxyModel (by reimplementing "filterAcceptsRow")
to add "emit layoutAboutToBeChanged()" and "emit layoutChanged()" around rows additions/removals
... but with no success, it still crashes.
Sometimes the crash occurs after many manipulations (I was not able to understand what is the succession of events that makes it crash). The possible manipulations are:
scrolling of course (mouse wheel, mouse click on scroll bar buttons or page up/down keys)
jump to a given date (right click + select a date in the calendar pop-up)
enable/disable filtering using the toolbar button
I made a full working example on my GitHub account:
https://github.com/3noix/ForDebug
I am currently using Qt 5.11.0 with MinGW 5.3.0 32 bits.
So do you have any idea of what I am doing wrong?
Thanks by advance.
