Well, then I'm wondering what the loss of alignment is 😊

The filter query for this very board is: 

component in (Demo, Demos, "Demo Design (internal)", "Demo Implementation 
(internal)", DemosAndPresentations, "Examples and Demos", Examples) OR labels 
in (example, examples, Examples)

So the fix for QTBUG is easy: Tag the JIRA issues you're interested in in QTBUG 
with 'example' label. Or even better, extend the query and use a more 
descriptive label like 'pm_demo'. Because I actually doubt that the various 
bugs we have currently reported against the 'Examples and Demos' component are 
really regularly reviewed by PM.

If we ever get properly maintained demos into QTBUG back (with clear 
responsibility) then I'm certainly not against it.
