As I develop in Qt For Embedded Linux on a regular basis, I'd like to understand 
this point so I can properly comment.
And yes, we do use QWS.

I agree with move the QWidget ones to Widgets module, and upgrade the reset to 
QML.
I'd suggest moving each with its own appropriate modules as well.

Also, I do plan on providing an example+demo for the QtService replacement as 
well.
