But it is callous when backwards compatibility is removed for no other reason then you can do so. I fully understand when you cannot use Qt4 do to something in the plugin not working with Qt4. But if there's no reason it won't work with Qt4, then (IMHO) there's no real reason to remove (or not add in) Qt4 compatibility.
