I've done that with Andy and with Peppe (QRegExp and QRegularExpression, 
respectively). That's fine.

It doesn't help me with QtDBus since there aren't people educated enough about 
them, other than me. That means the module has a bus factor close to 1, which 
is bad though.

And I don't want to overburden Lars with these things. And if I were to ask 
another maintainer, say Gunnar, what can I expect of him? I really doubt he's 
ever seen the codebase.

I also don't want to overburden you. Your helping me with one commit doesn't 
make you an expert in the matter.
