Thanks for answering :) Will commit to master now.

Regarding 2.4 I think that after the initial release such optimizations should better only appear in the next version. At least I hope for some release-often-and-early process of Calligra now after the initial release, so the time it takes to get also these optimizations into released products is only a few months. So IMHO the effort needed to backport and review and test would simply better be spent for new improvements in master. And as user the more new things are in a new release, the more interested and excited I am about the new release. Would you turn your 'yes' to a 'no' based on this reasoning as well? :)
