Okay, I can agree that missing terminal may be an issue. But you can use the one from LXDE just fine. I have yet to find a standalone Qt5 terminal emulator that's fully functional. There's KDE's Konsole, but it depends on way too many frameworks for consideration. To me, the power manager inclued with LXQt is rather a big improvement since I run a laptop. But still, neither have a proper touchpad configuration tool, so I have either to drive myself insane with the insane defaults for touchpads (enabled while typing (FFFUUUUU!!), no tap-to-click by default, no finger scrolling by default (srsly)) or bang my head trying to figure synclient/syndaemon syntax and put that into the startup script. And still, neither have a good Bluetooth solution that works with BlueZ5. I suppose I could try and integrate KDE's bluedevil into LXQt or find a port of Blueman for the GTK+ version, but I haven't tried it yet. I don't really know about the "looking" issue (I guess you mean the default theme is not good enough for you), but I have KDE's Breeze and Oxygen styles for Qt5, so it's rather pleasant and better looking than LXDE. To be honest, I don't know what the default theme looks like. As for Panel, I find it a bit better (maybe because of my default style) when it comes to visual. In LXDE, buttons and text are way smaller, at least on my setup - but then again I remember I have 5-6 desktops installed, so when all settings get mixed up you get something worse than hell. -- Note: My last name is not Krejzi.
