  It will be nice if this feature is mandatory for Qt 6, so let's add it to 
your requirements list.

  BTW, not only moc, uic & rcc are platform-independent, but also the headers 
(except a few that are generated by configure script which can be moved to 
platform libs dir). What will be cool really is to unify headers, examples & 
demos for the Qt SDKs, this way we'll save a lot of space.

Cheers,
BogDan.
