This is my personal opinion and others might see it differently but I am somewhat frustrated with appearing regressions that are not getting fixed even if properly reported to the bug tracker and the recent decision to hide LTS releases with stability fixes behind paywall will make things even worse.
I totally agree with this. Qt is a black box. When is works, all is fine. When it does not, we have to guess when it stopped to work and why. Text painting in work area is a pain, for example.
So I would say that if we have nightmarish piece of code (which might be the case here) then it make sense to Qt-fy it.
This is what I thought with the text-painting/string-breaking stuff, and now we have to code by hand the word breaking rules in CJK (#11593). And we have to work around weird bugs. We have also some very weird bugs related to Qt unicode handling.
The advantage of C++ std library here is that everything is dictated by a standard and every bug is something that has to be fixed. So we can basically rely on the behavior of the methods.
