For me, QT is a huge dependency.  I happen to build qt-4 towards the
end of my normal desktop builds, and that lets me build qupzilla (as
a backup browser) and vlc.  I might give qpdfview a try on some of my
systems, but I don't think the dependencies will play well with
Paul's needs.

And qt5 is a far heavier dependency than qt4 - I tried it once, in a
development system : needs the full webkit build for qupzilla
(worked ok, but full qt5 took _sooo_long_ to build) and vlc without
qt4 is unusable for a desktop.
