While I agree with almost everything of your posting I don't do with this 
one:

Qt/Quick has gone into the direction of Web technologies and you can't 
change this by simply disabling some features. This goes much deeper and 
has to do with the philosophy/mindset behind the product.

Have a look at https://www.qt.io/qt-vs-html-5-strengths-and-weaknesses. 
There is nothing wrong with these articles, but "four to eight times 
lower RAM requirements" than a beast like HTML5 does not put Qt into a 
different category. 

Actually we were so disappointed ( learning it the hard way with a 
project using QML ) about the direction Qt has taken, that we finally 
started our own framework on top of ~ QuickItem/QQuickWindow ( https://
github.com/uwerat/qskinny ).

PS: would be nice to have a feature to get rid of all QML related members/
interfaces of QQuickItem/QQuickWindow
