.. which does handle signals/slots when I get a pending patch a bit more polished.

Specifically about the SIGNAL/SLOT macros: for completion you don't need to expand them: completion is kicked off based on the expression before, then filter out everything but the signals/slots. That's for both the current code-model as well as for clang. So if the preprocessor makes it a string, that's okay.
