Indeed. I have one QML file (well maybe more than one given the way QML
works but basically the UI is entirely in QML) and this can be used from
PyQt5 or go-qml to provide multiple implementations behind the same UI.

D has always claimed to have excellent "link to C, and hence C++ (sort
of)" support, so what is it about the Qt library that causes hassle?

Sadly I really do need to work with the same UI file. I'll take a look
at DQuick though and see what it's like.

Thanks.
