https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-32335 - Add support for Notifications (Android, reported July 2013)
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-4011 - Add support for native notification systems. (4.5, unresolved)
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-29611 - (Desktop) Notifications (Mar 2010, P2, open)
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-49336 - Support new OS X Notification Center banners for systray balloon notification. (Nov 1015)
There does not seem to be one for iOS, but I suspect the OSX one would work? The issues are there, have been there, they just aren't being worked on.

If you have a large team developing with some of the mobile only frameworks over a long period of time, maintenance can become a burden. Now, for independent developers it may be a bit less challenging, but having a solid and well structured (Qt) framework should benefit in the non-trivial applications.

For example, the WinRT / Windows 10 support has been created from scratch in the past couple of releases. For many focusing to Android and iOS only that probably does not matter, but from the whole picture it is important for Qt. Also the creation on lightweight Qt Quick Controls 2 as well as renewal of the HighDPI/scalability support have been big and important tasks.

> Yeah, I'm going to say that porting to WinRT when the platform is dead isn't a productive use of developer time (Win10 sure). ( http://www.theverge.com/2016/5/23/11743594/microsoft-windows-phone-market-share-below-1-percent ) I understand that QPA wants to shine, but really hitting more basic, missing features of exsiting phone OSs is a better use of time IMHO. WinRT might be a special case because of that MS is doing with Win10, but I would not pile that on to the 'mobile' category.
