at this point i'm assuming we're going to need/want things in 4.3. that said, 
letting TT carry library load on their shoulders is not a bad thing. they 
have more manpower for libraries than we do.

we've often required a specific version (or greater) of Qt.

this is often how it works, yes. get a good amount of functionality into Qt as 
makes sense for a library at that level and then layer on desktop-specific 
additions and conveniences.
