Well, but who will be the one reviewing it? Thiago, I guess. The problem 
is not that there is no solution, the problem is that the solution was 
intentionally removed (qt3 works) with explanation "you had enough time 
(during qt3 life cycle) to fix your files". Proposing it for inclusion 
again in this situation, will be a waste of time imo.
