There are only nine Qt 5 based ports in the portstree, this number is too low
for estimations. As for Qt 4, we have ~1000 ports that depend on qt4-gui,
and ~250 of them depend on qt4-designer, while only ~10 of them provide
plugins for Designer. Only these latter ports really need qt4-designer, all
other ports would be probably satisfied by qt4-uitools.
