The '5' makes sense because it is 'part of Qt5'. It is part of the

So far, we know it is deliberate. We don't know if it was a mistake, and we 
don't know if naming things is a free-for-all.

Lars: Can you answer? Is there a way to name include directories and libraries 
or is it a free-for-all? Can future modules be expected to follow any naming 
conventions, or is it expected that they can be named anything?
