Yes, definitely.

You're allowed to make your own interpretation of the direction of the 
project. The maintainer for the module in question gets to set general 
direction only. For short-term decisions, including adding a small feature 
here and there, all contributors are entitled to their decisions and can use 
their brain matter to decide what's best for Qt.

Though, if you're in doubt, ask. We don't bite :-)

In this particular case, I'm all for it. Go ahead and submit it. I'll review 
and provide feedback on the API and implementation.

As any new feature, it should be submitted to the dev branch of Qt. You can 
work on top of stable, but the change needs to go into dev.
