Why? Apart from the fact that Kdevelop currently has near to no Qt4
support, I think the last 3.x Version should have full Qt4 support as it
will be the last release for a long time to come (AFAIK). At least
having an option to choose the name of the qmake-binary is needed (I do
see that the qmake-qt4 creates Makefiles with proper moc-qt4 and uic-qt4
commands), together with a QMake-Qt4-Project manager and support for
the new Macros.
