[Development] Qt 5.6.0 header diff: QtGui.diff

[Agocs Laszlo]

For OpenGL ES 3.2, those will go into the extras at some point in a future release, yes.
And that's pretty much it for now since it is unlikely we get a wide range of new OpenGL versions anytime soon.

This does not affect the version & profile based wrappers, for those who are only interested in targeting certain modern desktop systems. Those continue to have separate classes for each version/profile.

Cheers,
Laszlo

But won’t that be confusing, when we add wrappers for more versions? What
will we call the wrapper class for OpenGL 4? Or are you planning to put
those into the extras as well?

Cheers,
Lars
