This wasn't a new feature. It was fixing an existing feature, and the fix 
couldn't wait for Qt 5.1.

We only found out about this issue because someone evaluating Qt 5 told us 
about it a week ago on IRC. I haven't seen the IRC handle before or since, so 
this was the kind of person who would give us feedback on a beta for example.

We will probably get more such feedback once the beta is released (I hope we 
will anyway - I'm glad we found out about this issue now and not a week before 
5.0 release), and we need to be able to fix issues like that which can't be 
fixed after 5.0. Otherwise there would be no point in the beta at all.

Thanks,
