 It would be nice if somebody from TT could comment on their plans for 
supporting the ARGB visual. As far as I can see there's QWidget::x11Info() 
which has things like QX11Info::depth(), QX11Info::visual() and so on, so I 
really don't see why people should try hacks with a non-standard QApplication 
ctor when one could presumably turn ARGB support only for widgets where 
needed.
