This is a good example of a system that can live outside of Qt. I see 
the point in it, but there's no reason for it to be part of Qt.

When I see "it could be cool to have..." I immediately think "then just 
build it".

For this particular system, it's exactly the same as in Java. Hibernate 
is a separate package, and Java offers the tools necessary to implement 
hibernate.

I can't find a single good argument for adding a hibernate like system 
to Qt itself. But I can find plenty for building it.
