I would at the minimum like to split up on a per module basis, maybe even a bit more fine-grained. So one Maintainer for Qt QML, one for Qt Quick, etc.

Agreed, QtQml and QtQuick are both separate modules that are full
'module' sized. As development ramps back up I hope we can find at
least one maintainer per module (which is more important than
maintainers 'per repository').

Yes, I'm willing to take that role. As you might have noticed, a
significant part of my day job is working on QML already and my
manager is supportive of my spending more time on it to fulfill the
maintainer duties.
