Considering that we never had a use through Qt 5's life time, I think it's time to remove them from the default setup. Note that the git repo's stay around. You just have to manually add them to your checkout

I have no problems with that.

I would have liked to see qtsystems split into the three constituent 
parts - publishandsubscribe, serviceframework and systeminfo.

Although Mer/Jolla still use these I believe... Chris?

But it might be more of a pain than its worth at this point.
