If cmake uses some sort of makefile where you can specify commands that are 
executed for each target, then it should be no problem.

Yes, I mean Qt.dll. I myself would name it "qyoto.dll" because the namespace 
is also named "Qyoto".

I wouldn't do that, I think it would be too complex.
And as far as I know there will be no speed improvement from that, because 
Mono only compiles the code-parts that are really used, not the whole 
assembly that is referenced.
