Yes, I can provide at least provide object files to re-link with. At the
moment,
all my apps are opensource so I am already compliant with the GPL and
the LGPL.
As for closed source apps, I can only use code licensed with the LGPL,
and provide
object files to re-link with.

However, it would be nice to have a commercial license to be able to use
Qt static libraries in
closed source software, and to also receive support from The Qt Company.
I will carry on statically linking Qt in my opensource applications.
