[Qt-interest] Any plans to implement Ribbons in Qt?

[Malyushytsky, Alex]

A while ago Microsoft added concept of ribbons:

Are there any plans to add support of ribbon-like controls to Qt?
According to my impression all you need is menu bar class which can display Application button and Quick access menu.
Everything else seems can be designed using already existing in Qt controls.

During my web search I've found that Qt team at one point stopped developing the control due to Microsoft licensing.
Any  changes?
What actually was so restrictive?
According to my impression you can't license the specific positioning of the controls, can you?
