Another possibility is to bundle a copy of qt.conf inside your *.app bundle.

That qt.conf could look as simple as:

  [Paths]
  Plugins = PlugIns

Where "PlugIns" is the Qt plugin folder inside your app bundle (where imageformats etc. is located). This qt.conf can then be placed at $$APP_BUNDLE/Contents/Resources/qt.conf
