I would not expect that.
The use of Linguist and the Qt translation system in general is
completely optional for a Qt application, you can use any other
system for your own translations already now.I
Apart from that, Qt translations and gettext are not equivalent
featurewise, neither is a super nor a subset of the other, so
*dropping* the Qt translation system will hurt someone.
