I’m aiming for supporting 10.7 as “deprecated” in the 5.5 release. It currently 
does not compile - the lack of CI testing is showing. I’m focusing on QtBase.

I think it’s OK if other modules, and especially new modules, have stricter 
requirements. Qt users can make a decision if the provided OS version support 
is acceptable before starting to use the module.

In general my opinion is that Qt as middleware should try very hard to not get 
in the way when it comes to OS and compiler requirements.
