This is because "qreal" is a typedef that is an alias to either real or 
double depending on the target platform. However, at the time where 
syntax highlighting happens, we do not have information about include 
files yet, and hence do not know about typedefs. That's mostly for 
performance reasons.

We should probably add a second pass of highlighting which adds those 
information, but such a feature is not planned yet. Just adding "qreal"
to the list of keywords is also not really acceptable, since it would
also get highlighted in non-Qt projects.

Maybe Roberto can comment on this further.

Ignored as requested ;-)

Nice to hear!
