Yes, I realize that. However, the #! interpreter syntax is important 
enough that e.g. the authors of scsh (Scheme Shell) 
<http://www.scsh.net/docu/html/man-Z-H-2.html#node_sec_1.6.3> have 
decided to give it special treatment.

QML could be an extremely nifty tool for writing simple script style 
applications without compromising in the user interface front. 
Supporting the #! syntax would make it even more attractive, at least to 
me. And even more so to the hordes of Meego hackers already banging at 
the gates ;-)
