That might be the case for QPrinter, but not the case for QtWebKit.  
QtWebKit is hosted in the WebKit svn repository and patches go there,  
Qt simply takes snapshots to go in Qt releases and the QtWebKit code  
can be found in the 3rd party directory of Qt.  In fact if you try to  
submit a patch to QtWebKit through Qt you will probably be asked to  
use bugs.webkit.org.
