To me this looks like the perfect plan. It's exactly what all customers I have spoken to have been asking for as well. With an LTS release that has almost all of the modules of the Qt 5 lifetime, I'd be fine with dropping the compilation requirements of webkit and quick1 from 5.7. IMO that's the benefit that an LTS support should give - to allow us to completely drop support for old modules. This gives the option of shifting resources from keeping f.e. webkit compiling with the latest version to keeing it running with the LTS release.
