This you'd have to ask yourself somewhere where people who are entitled to 
answer can do so.

My guess is that it can be, but that it'd be something that would be 
considered, if ever, for a next major version. It is like other functionality 
that was moved from KDE4 into Qt because it had a proven added value.

IMHO, such added value will be more apparent if it can be demonstrated on more 
than a single platform ("Plasma" in this case).

Because were talking about font role presets, colour palettes (and icon themes) 
that are defined by KDE?

Evidently it's possible for any application that wishes to do so to use 
whatever they please even in pure Qt applications. That already happens; cf. 
VirtualBox or Parallel Desktop or even Qt Creator.

Actually, I think I ought to answer with a question:
what makes KDE so special that it needs font role presets, colour palettes 
etc., why didn't it extend the QPlatformTheme in Qt itself?

I wonder if that isn't exactly what I'm getting at ... that they should be 
untied to a further extent on OS X.
