I think this is just papering over the cracks. It's wrong for updateStyleIfNeeded() to get called during painting, period. Yes, plugins that run script when being painted can cause this. They are evil plugins, but we can't stop them.

Mac has a code path that paints plugins into bitmaps earlier, and then paints those bitmaps during the painting code. Maybe Qt needs the  same thing.
