you should contribute to
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-14150 getting fixed.
that (specifically, subtask https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-15234)
will make everything relative to the location of qtcore (or ideally,
relative to the particular library which is doing the resource lookup).
this will ultimately cause the disappearance of qt.conf, which sounds a
lot better to me than either of your options.
