As long as we don't ship the *actual* libraries for those plugins, just the 
plugins, there's no chance of that being a problem. Our SQL driver code is 
licensed under the standard Qt terms and that's what counts.

If the library for that SQL database isn't present, the plugin won't load. In 
order to load it, the application developers must supply the library and then 
they must investigate the licensing terms thereof.
