Speaking as someone who has almost no clue about QtRO, from an engineering pov, it feels weird to have an easily-parsable representation of a QMetaObject, then generate C++ code from it, and then use moc to parse the C++ code to generate a QMetaObject. Wouldn't it be much simpler to generate the moc files directly from the rep files (maybe even at runtime, with QMetaObjectBuilder)?
