I investigated it seriously but talking with a well known vendor of Qt 
controls at the last DevDays in San Francisco persuaded me that such a thing 
would not sell well given the current Qt audience.  It's a chicken and egg 
problem.  Qt is not mainstream enough to support such a library, and it will 
not become more mainstream without such libraries.  But I don't have the 
resources or funding to be on the bleeding edge of this fight to gain 
mainstream prominence, much as I would like to do so as Qt deserves it.

Now if Nokia would like to fund me to do so, I would very much like to talk 
about it :-)
