That's not entirely true. The Qt upgrade might imply a forced QtQuick 
(or some related module) version upgrade, which will break your code 
with a "if something is not explicitly defined, treat as broken" 
attitude. I would argue "does not work any more" does constitute as a 
change in behaviour. The approach IMH(and personal)O is wrong, as it's 
actually tying code to *VERSIONS* and not *API*s. The insult-to-injury 
there is that the versions mentioned are actually ID strings and contain 
no semantics or relations (like major version backwards compatibility, etc).
