You are right. Actually, I would ask for something different now:
since it is obvious that the qt4 frontend is going to have large
surgery in 1.5, there is little point to start from a common base in
1.4. What I would like in 1.4 is a qt4 frontend which is as close as
reasonable to the qt2 frontend. That would mean no big refactorization
of code, optimizations, whatever. I do not care if there are still
some Qt3 compatibility classes in there, for example.

Abdel, does it seem reasonable? Once qt4 is officially in the 1.4
tree, I am going to be conservative about further changes anyway. And
before you ask, it will be the same for gtk :)

Then, qt4 would be 1.5 only because my port has a lot of refactorization already and I am not willing to go backward. That's fine with me, the qt2 frontend is good enough for 1.4 and I don't see the benefits of having a "qt2 alike" qt4 frontend. As the qt2 frontend seems "frozen" for the last year or so, I do not think developers would shout if we say that all new Qt functionality should be qt4 only ;-)

Abdel.
