The more interesting question would be, in the case of Digia at least:
are those changes ever merged back into the "main" Qt source tree? Or do
they have their own closed-source tree and constantly pulling in the
changes from "main Qt" behind locked (commercial) doors?

Shouldn't all their changes be "public", and any one of us could "merge"
them in by hand to the git repository right?

Isnt that the whole point of Opensource?
