I disagree insofar as it concerns new types.

Either a new type put into a QList is optimally efficient (sizeof == sizeof 
void* and at least Q_MOVABLE_TYPE), or the new type is not put into QList. For 
existing types, I think we agree to keep them, unless a change is relatively 
painless (like the FormatRange in QTextEngine/QTextLayout) or the problem is 
relatively painful (also FormatRange) or other parts of Qt already keep the 
type in QVector (again, FormatRange).
