I don't get what you mean with that.

My concerns are about having -qt5 ignored for the "real" qmake on linux. On 
Windows and Mac the -qt option is useless anyhow (which makes it questionable 
to use it there IMO, so it makes it questionable to use it in the documentation 
that way too IMO)

I think all this becomes much too confusing.
