Well, contributions to Qt have been ~80 % from Nokia.  (Source,

I wonder if they could lobby Nokia/Microsoft to make Qt full citizen on 
Nokia's Windows 8 phones and tablets?   That would at least 
differentiate Nokia offering a bit from rest of the winphones, and give 
a raison d'etre for continued Qt support.   And the know-how is already 
in-house.  That would also give some continuity for existing Qt mobile 
developers.
