Hi,
Some of qt3support use in Kexi can be removed but not from core
components like table view. So the dependency is unconditional.

Qt 5 is a long way, isn't it? We have not had even single release for Qt 4.
I wouldn't want to see another initiatives like Trinity KOffice
started for Calligra/Qt4.

Because of the current resources I am in favour of 'switch to Qt 5
when we're ready'. As for Kexi itself there is no feature of Qt 5 that
is of even secondary importance for now.

Qt 4 will be still available in distros, I bet, for many releases.
