I believe everybody would welcome that.
On that note, just a wild idea, paying per module (i.e. 50$ / year for
QtCore + 50$ / year for GUI, etc.) could be more flexible scheme to
license. Not sure how that aligns with QtC's sales people, but seems more
fair to me to pay for what you use (and by extension support its
development).
