Any such submission to Qt will get an immediate -2 from me. If you really need 
it, you can add to your own application. You should also document why your 
application consumes CPU time when doing nothing and shows up as one of the 
culprits for battery consumption in power-measurement tools.

QElapsedTimer granularity on Windows is a runtime property, so I can't tell 
you what it is. You have to call the QueryPerformanceFrequency() function to 
find that out.
