No, the plan is that both support the same feature set. Of those dialogs in the xforms frontend that aren't listed in the Qt frontend, only the 'Forks' dialog will not be implemented (a task manager of processes forked by lyx). It was implemented in the xforms frontend 'for fun'. I'm not sure whether I agree with John Levon when he says that 'such things should be controlled from the console' (paraphrased!), but it's of pretty minor importance. Indeed, looking at the list, I believe that all dialogs are now implemented in the Qt frontend. The web site is lagging behind a little. Conclusion: if you like xforms better, then stick with it.
