The names are one part legacy and one part for consistency. Either way I don't feel strongly about the names, so
if we can agree on the names I'll fix it asap.

So the options are QAndroidJniXxx and QJniXxx? Personally I prefer the later.

Unless there's a compelling reason otherwise, I'd suggest renaming to QJniXxx.

Also, shouldn't there be an "Android" somewhere there?
