Thanks for the answer. It's not what I'd would have preferred to hear, but 
it's an answer alright.

Note: we are allowed to add C++11-only features, so long as Qt continues to 
build. For example, the new QThread::makeThread will most likely require 
lambdas and std::function.

In fact, I encourage people to add new, convenience API that is C++11 only. 
Like Marc says, "C++98 costs more" and we want people to force their vendors 
to provide support.
