I'm with Robert on this one - the messaging & numbering is not super clear.

It was implied by the recent survey on WebEngine that we could install more
recent versions of WebEngine than what our base Qt was at. Does this mean
that we can install anything under "Qt WebEngine 6.10"? Or is it that
everything under "Qt WebEngine 6.10" updates itself, so if I'm using Qt
6.8.2, I might get updates to Qt 6.8.2  (under Qt WebEngine) but still have
it called "Qt 6.8.2"? Terribly confusing.

We need two explicit numbers - the WebEngine version and the "compatible
with Qt" version. (Maybe that's what 6.10/6.8.2 are? Unclear.)
