Exactly.

There's two things to look at for Frameworks I think:
- Qt: only two more version updates remaining for 5, or at most two per year. 
Doing this as an explicit/script-assisted bump is probably acceptable, and to 
to be sure we don't forget this it could maybe automatically be determined as 
max(explicitly deprecated qt version, minimum required qt version).

- other KF5 dependencies: it might be worth setting this to the current KF5 
version. At least at the point where we are deprecated-clean once, and accept 
a deprecation policy that requires Frameworks to be ported before the 
deprecation is executed. In such a scenario this would never trigger, but 
provide a safe guard we follow our own rules.

Volker
