There are two temporaries, reply.arguments() returns a temporary QList
and list.at(0) returns a temporary reference to the first element. The
local reference variable would only extend the lifetime of the temporary
object it's bound to, list.at(0), but not the temporary list itself.
Even though this a false positive in this case because QList is
implicilty shared, the compiler can't tell the difference and the fix is
simple.
