So once again you want to artificially restrict what Qt does and block a 
convenient improvement just because the STL doesn't have it. :-( And then 
you go and claim the Qt implementation has no benefits over the STL one, 
which is no wonder if you prevent any from going in.

And then, you yourself wrote:

which means that the STL versions are NOT "perfectly adequate".

And just like Alexander Nassian, I also think consistent APIs (no std::*) 
should be a goal.
