But this would mean, in consequence, that if we implement something within the 2.4 cycle, we would have to make sure it still compiles with Qt < 5.2. I got to this while pondering about the URL link warning dialog. Implementing this dialog (the way I proposed it) would mean we'd need to roll another self-baked dialog only for the sake of keeping it compilable with Qt < 5.2. Generally I would not expect to find significant bugs in Qt 5.2 that are not in Qt 5.0 and 5.1 (on the contrary; Qt 5 has not been very stable before 5.2). -- Jürgen
