I'd like to suggest that additional widgets, unless they represent a 
very important addition so that Qt can support a now-common UI design 
pattern, are not added to QtWidgets but to an addon module. With the 
lack of a maintainer (let alone a set of them), I think it does not make 
sense to complicate the module even more. I think the widgets you 
mention may be useful in some applications, but it is not like they will 
be used all over the place.
