Yeah, it *may* be :) Part of the big hurdle we had to take before we could accept KF5 into MacPorts (*) was patching QStandardPaths to have an optional XDG-compliant mode, and then figuring out how to activate that mode only in applications where it is required.

*) Every application that is built on XDG specifications doesn't use QStandardPaths, but they all still have to co-operate in something like MacPorts.
