Well this really sounds like a bad joke. I took from Qt5's message QPainter is
"done", i. e. frozen for good.
Now you're saying that QPainter will be marked deprecated in Qt5 and dropped
in Qt6?
That'd be similar to POSIX proclaiming to deprecate "open()" and drop it next
year.
Can any Trolltech official confirm that QPainter is going to stay just like
open() in POSIX, stable, non-morphing, and reliable? Or confirm the opposite?
