I have real doubts a full-fidelity Oxygen for Controls is possible - it
does a number of things that are really heavily tied to QWidget, like
eventFilter trickery to install the background gradient and spawning
dummy widgets above scrollarea view ports to fill in the curves of the
rounded corners. It may be necessary to simplify the style visually to
hit a lowest common denominator between the two toolkits.


Cheers,
Eike
