[Interest] Standardizing Qt Kit Names

It might be a minor point, but I think it would be good to have more uniform kit name structure.

I'd like it to be Qt / Version / Platform like
Qt 5.10.1 for Desktop
Qt 5.10.1 for iOS
Qt 5.10.1 for iOS Simulator

Instead I currently see:
Android  for armabi-v7a (GC... Qt5.10.1..)
Desktop Qt 5.10.1 clang ...
Qt 5.10.1 for iOS

Either iOS has to come first, or Android, Desktop, have to come last. I think for readability (and sorting) it should be 
<Qt version> / <Platform> / <Sub platform>

Where subplatform is Simulator, or CPU architecture This way, all Qt platforms of the same version would be grouped together. Since I regard (and I think others) Qt version as the first logical grouping rather than platform (who wants to select Platform, then Qt Version?, maybe if enough people want it, make it dynamic?)

Just my quantitative eased $.02
