I'm no C++ master, so you might teach me something if you explain what you meant, but the only important difference I see between them is that QScopedPointer is non-copyable. This is the main issue I see with auto_ptr, where it could cause more trouble than it would help. On the other hand, I don't see in which case QScopedPointer being movable would be a problem. The move semantic was designed so that it's either explicit or implicit when safe to do. In any case I don't have a strong opinion on whether or not we should keep it, I'm just puzzled on how it is problematic. Redundancy with std hasn't been a strong concern of Qt before. I personally find the functionality convenient and non-obstrusive.
