In the subject of the email, you wrote "virtual inheritance", yet here you 
wrote visual inheritance.

If you meant "virtual inheritance", nothing in Qt forbids you from using 
virtual inheritance in your own code. It's perfectly fine to do that. Qt 
classes don't use virtual inheritance themselves, though: that was our 
design decision to make.

If you meant "visual inheritance", please explain what you meant by the 
expression.
