Yup:

They have applied a half-finished patch for Qt (from 
http://qt.gitorious.org/+qt-developers/qt/multipoint-touch/trees/4.7-with-
xinput2.1/ , branch that does not appear to be going to be merged in Qt 
4.8...), to get multitouch and probably did not do any tablet testing, and 
worse they use a old version of that patch.

In that instance, Qt is pretty much innocent, all they blame they can take is 
doing their devlopement in the open.
