No.

If filenames were represented everywhere with QUrl, it would. The problem is 
that QFile, QDir and other filesystem functions and classes use QString. Those 
cannot represent characters outside the locale.

So, Qt 5 will continue to treat files outside the locale encoding as filesystem 
corruption and will misbehave.
