Such a slot would be a 'int fooBar(const QWidget&)'.

It is a method. The fact that it is marked with a Q_SLOT attribute is
irrelevant.

I don't think it's possible. My question is: why don't you like this
approach? What's wrong with having a temporary object dispatch a
generic delegate invocation?

As far as I know, it is released. The compiler for the 2.0 version is
included in the mono package, and called gmcs, and the runtime works
with 2.0 assemblies as well.
