In BlackBerry Cascades implementation I'm never using points or pixels,
I'm using predefined sizes:
TitleText
SubtitleText
Smalltext
LargeText
XLargeText
BigText
...
... and I was sure on all BB10 devices with different dpi the font size
is the same.
It's not so easy not to re-think for Qt 5.6 and using px

I like the qt.labs.controls where I can use colors as accent or primary etc.
that's intuitive
