Presumably the Qt5 release could be an impetus to restart active
evolution of QtD? QtQuick doesn't really do it for me given QtDesigner,
but…

I work in a biased sample set, but very few people I know would write Qt
applications in C++, it's all PyQt4 and PySide with connection to C, C++
and Fortran to make use of computational frameworks. cf. SciPy.

Also it has to be noted that for all it's C++ horrible API, wxWidgets
has a large mind share in the cross-platform GUIs arena, especially
given wxPython and wxGlade.
