[Qt-qml] Towards QtQuick 2.0 , what more improvements to make JS first class citizen?

[Bo Thorsen]

You guys are going about this the wrong way. Since Qt is now a real open 
source project, voting isn't going to get you anywhere. Well, someone 
might pick it up, sure, but you can't know.

If you want it, you should start creating a patch for it. Create a git 
branch for this and tell others what you are doing so they can help.

Bo.
