The problem is how to implement workable bindings for QAbstractFunctor. 
I think it's probably possible to do - but I'm not sure it is worth it.

Is there any need to use setDataGenerator() rather than just setData()?

If setData() is adequate then I would probably remove QAbstractFunctor 
and all related sub-classes and methods.
