/**
 * @short Convenience class for getting payload parts from an Akonadi Model.
 *
 * This class can be used to retrieve individual payload parts from an EntityTreeModel,
 * and fetch them asynchronously from the Akonadi storage if necessary.
 *
 * The requested part is emitted though the partFetched signal.
 *
 * Example:
 *
 * @code
 *
 * const QModelIndex index = view->selectionModel()->currentIndex();
 *
 * PartFetcher *fetcher = new PartFetcher( index, Akonadi::MessagePart::Envelope );
 * connect( fetcher, SIGNAL( result( KJob* ) ), SLOT( fetchResult( KJob* ) ) );
 * fetcher->start();
 *
 * ...
 *
 * MyClass::fetchResult( KJob *job )
 * {
 *   if ( job->error() ) {
 *     qDebug() << job->errorText();
 *     return;
 *   }
 *
 *   PartFetcher *fetcher = qobject_cast<PartFetcher*>( job );
 *
 *   const Item item = fetcher->item();
 *   // do something with the item
 * }
 *
 * @endcode
