[Interest] Future of Qt Location (mapping solutions) in Qt 6

Hi all,

just wanted to bring some attention to the fact that it is still unclear if
the Qt Location module (which gives plotting of geographical maps) will be
included in Qt 6 at all.

For our use-case it's a complete show-stopper if it disappears (especially
using the mapbox-gl plugin) and we would be stuck with Qt 5.15 until we
find some other way to proceed. How widespread is the actual use of this
module? It brings a lot of value for us for sure (commercial product). I've
brought this up with commercial support, but I guess it would be
interesting to hear what the open source side thinks too.

Cheers,
Ola
