OK I have voted on this issue. Be aware that you may find this ticket gets 
closed due to there also being a merge request on gitorious for it. This 
happend to my QCircularBuffer issue:

http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-14262

Thiago, if you read this, what is the preferred way of tracking (and getting a 
MR noticed)? Gitorious only or gitorious plus jira? Has the suprt-tanker that 
is Nokia been steered towards the open governance model as yet?

Cheers,

Sean
