That definitely does not sound correct, no. Right now multitouch support 
in Qt 5 for Android is work-in-progress, but in general I do not think 
any touch points should be discarded before you actually stop pressing. 
If you want to get involved when we have a solution, we'd be glad to 
have your feedback to make sure we get it right :)

If you have questions specific to Necessitas (the port of Qt 4 to 
Android), I think you'll get more help directing them to 
necessitas-devel at kde.org, as that port is not being managed in the Qt 
Project.
