And I agree: there isn't much value in exposing QFile to Python (QProcess I'd 
argue has value, because Python's subprocess module is a mess, but that and 
some others are the exception not the rule). UI is where Qt first shines.

Where does it shine *next*? What else is in the pipeline (if you can share 
with us)? CoAP? CAN bus?
