[Qt5-feedback] Qt5 and C++ exception

[lars.knoll at nokia.com]

The short answer is no. Of course you can use exceptions in your own code
together with Qt, but we don't intend of making their use mandatory (ie.
make the Qt API depend upon them).

There's a couple of reasons for that. API compatibility is one of them,
the other is related to the fact that we don't believe exceptions (in the
general case) make code easier to read or handle and the third due to the
fact that exceptions do not interact nicely with shared libraries on some
platforms.

Cheers,
Lars
