That is debatable. LXQt is released by the merged LXDE and Razor-Qt
upstreams. One could say there are simply two expressions of LXDE now:
one in GTK+ and one in Qt.

Personally I don't see a need for this. All the Qt-specific packages
are named accordingly, and should not confuse anyone installing
anything from the lxde-base category. I would like to see that latter
category re-used for this.

But I know the maintainers of LXDE herd do not support this view, and
since at this point I don't have the time to maintain LXQt, I will
leave the decision up to you guys.

I think these packages could be placed in the relevant x11-*
categories, as they are perfectly usable in other environments as
well, tho for ease of maintenance you could stick them with the LXQt
packages.
