Yes I renamed the top-level directory of the Qt that I used to build the app.  The rsync in the script copies the qml stuff into Contents/MacOS (no surprise if that's not the canonical place to put it though), so e.g. photosurface.app/Contents/MacOS/QtQuick/Dialogs/WidgetFileDialog.qml exists, and the photosurface app uses it.
