You mean port away from QApplication? Anyway, I don't quite get it: - QtSingleApplication is as easily accessible as other "bread and butter" parts of Qt via git, hosted by the same entity, - no other parts of Qt depend on QtSingleApplication nor would see any kind of UX/Performance/whatever boost if they did, - we jump through major hoops and put major effort to have something resembling a modular system with independent repos, - every now and than we have the feeling that Qt Core / Qt Base grows too much fat/looks like a dumping ground of nice-to-have feeatures/whatever and we are not happy and still we move stuff *needlessly* to Qt Core? Why? Because Qt Solutions "feel unmaintained"? Wouldn't be the natural solution to maintain QtSingleApplication *there*?
