On the other hand, getting this into qt itself is not going to happen on Qt 5.3 branch (it's frozen) or 5.4 (it's also frozen), which is why I created/updated the patch for the 5.4 branch (I guess I really should have used the dev branch instead as that will become 5.5). I'm not sure if the patch will apply to 5.3 or not, the patch was changing qstandardpaths_mac.cpp which doesn't even exist in the 5.4 branch (it's qstandardpaths_mac.mm here) If it was .mm in 5.3 it should apply or would be simple to tweak so that it does apply for macports to use I guess.

Also, I think you will find that there is a change from DataLocation type to
AppDataLocation and AppLocalDataLocation types, with DataLocation
being deprecated, but still supported (== AppDataLocation, IIRC).

So, separate patches?

Cheers, Ian W.
