What does seem to work however - also in Qt 4.8 - is e.g. a "QGraphicsView on top of a QGLWidget": some (most?) paint operations are then OpenGL accelerated.
Also using a simple QPainter on top of a QGLWidget does accelerate certain (most?) paint operations. You have to be careful though not to "mix" the GL state induced by the QPainter and your own GL state (setup with your own modelview matrix etc.). See "beginNativePaint" and friends in the Qt docs.
Not sure whether that helps in your context.
Cheers,
Oliver
