Mostly yes we see a demand in getting new c++ features into Qt. As far as my knowlege goes is that WEC2013 bundles they compiler with the SDK which is produced by the Platform Builder. As of now I did not see any indication that this bundled compiler will be updated(right now they bundle the VS2012 compiler). All websites which I did read say if you read closely that they are supporting the new Visual Studio IDE, but will take the toolchain of the SDK which is provided. Basically it means we are stuck with Visual Studio 2012 c++ featureset for Windows Embedded Compact 2013. If we want to support newer C++ with Qt 5.8 we would need to drop the complete platform. As of problems to support it in newer Qt Versions, I can say the market share right now is not very big, as also already indicated by someone else. Hardware vendors do release right now more experimental support for WEC2013, which means there might be years until they reach a decent market share.
