Good idea -- although, given that it's for use with cmake, why not make it part of cmake?
Otherwise Qt-only apps will have to say "requires cmake and automoc", both coming
from a different place....
(and the name "automoc" is already taken by the old kde1 tool, technically)
This one is really a cmake-automoc or something like that.

You mean kdesupport will install it as "automoc" and kdelibs will install it
as "kde4automoc" so that they don't create a conflict?

Or you mean "kdelibs will require automoc which kdesupport will provide"?

In fact both are fine with me, I'm just wondering what you meant :)
