We're printing warnings that the plugins have disabled in the qmake step. I agree with André however that using the other plugins of Qt Creator with Qt 4.x is still fine, so I don't think we want to actively prevent compilation with Qt 4.

(Widely used builds for distributions etc anyhow should really built on top of Qt 5. We'll make sure to properly communicate this for the 3.0 release).

Should be fixable :) I marked it with the 'creator_qt5' label, which you can add for Qt 5 issues affecting Qt Creator.
