Also FWIW ... I am not a big fan of universal builds. It just bloats code and downloads with no real benefit. So when I finally do get an M1 machine, I will be building and releasing separate "x86_64" and "arm64" versions of Sigil and not "universal builds".

I also saw that these key arm64 on macOS patches have also been been committed to the last Qt 5.12.12 release. So that tree should be buildable on macOS arm64 as well and it is fully available under the opensource license.
