+    Registers an associative container so that it can be converted to
+    a QVariantHash or QVariantMap. If the key_type and mapped_type of the container
+    was not declared with Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(), compilation will fail.
+
+    Note that it is not necessary to call this method for Qt containers (QHash,
+    QMap etc) or for std::map. Such containers are automatically registered by Qt.
