I have no strong opinion on this one. I think first feed is ok.

Previous feed would be logical, wouldn't it? :-) Basically selecting the
first feed was a cop-out, it was easy to do and fixed the problem. 

Selecting the previous feed is more difficult. Deleting is done in
MainWindow, to which FeedList responds by saving and emitting
FeedDeletedSignal. That is catched by FeedCategoryList so it can remove
the feed from the categories and by Main which tells MainWindow what to
do.[1] Like which feed to show. By the time Main knows about the feed
deletion, it has no way of figuring out what was the feed's position in
the category. I'm not really sure how this should be done.

[1] Have I ever mentioned I think the resposibility split between Main
and MainWindow is really confusing and needs a serious refactoring?
