[Development] QtQuick1 (Qt4 and Qt5)

Hi,

The primary purpose of having QtQuick 1 in Qt5 is compatibility, that

I completely agree.  The issue is not only one of compatibility and
simplicity (although those reasons are compelling enough on their own).
QtQuick1 is legacy, and exists for one intended reason only.  Any other
reason is unintentional and signifies a bug (or planned feature) in
QtQuick2.

Cheers,
Chris.
