I think you can enhance share/qbs/imports/qbs/base/DynamicLibrary.qbs or 
just add a Framework.qbs there and derive StaticLibrary, DynamicLibrary 
and Framework from a common library item.

WRT the install location of headers, I like your latter proposal best, 
because its more explicit where which header get installed to.
