Public bug reported:

Preview stack objects leak memory because of the custom QObject::event()
handlers that shell plugin uses. These event handlers need to call base
QOBject::event for unhandled events, and unity8 needs to make sure it
keeps the reference to PreviewStack object (not just preview model) for
as long as needed till the preview is closed.
