We already have one, it's called QObject::connect.

Examples:
	connect(model, &QItemSelectionModel::currentChanged,
		otherModel, &QItemSelectionModel::setCurrentIndex);
	connect(screen, &QScreen::geometryChanged, widget, &QWidget::resize);
	connect(window, &QWindow::visibleChanged,
		otherwindow, [=](bool arg) { otherWindow->setVisible(!arg); });
