I think it's fine that you add the other one if you prefer people to use setters, but please don't deprecate the old one. There's little reason for doing so, it's very old API and it has always worked as is.

I went with not allowing any optional arguments to the constructor, to encourage users of the class to use setters, which makes for more readable code.  I deliberated giving it just one argument, but in the end went with the formerly-required arguments.

It could be set if the organizationDomain has not been explicitly set.  However, the organizationDomain is not passed to QCoreApplication as I assumed it would be - it that intentional?
