Haven't tried it, but wouldn't it be possible to define an <img> tag then which references an /embedded/ QPixmap (which would have to be dynamically created, off course - somehow).

It is always "allowed" to include whatever you want (at least in the Qt world anyway - some other companies have a different view on that topic when it comes to "App Store Rules" ;)), as long as you remember what "private" implies: "You're on your own!"

So the only one who might "punish" you is your compiler once those private headers change...

That said, if you have a valid use case and the private API call does work, you could make a "feature request" - or even better: provide your own Qt changes to the project for review :)
