As a Debian developer, you might also consider that you should never
ever package Krita 3 for Debian with a Qt 5.6 without this fix. You'd have
to carry the patch for Qt 5.6 or forego packaging Krita (and later on,
OpenToonz).

The only Qt patches we accept are the ones ACKed by upstream (ie, someone from
the Qt project) or the ones that are really debian-specific. Projects using Qt
should use whatever the official Qt releases ship.

So backporting a merged fix is OK, but a patch to alter standard Qt behavior
not yet accepted is not ok.

Well, deciding upon your policy is certainly your prerogative.
