That's why I wrote "[uses] under the hood" and not "inherits from" ;)

Maybe my "used as base" wording was a bit misleading here: I meant that the 
QtGui library acts as a "base" (basis? Sorry, not a native English speaker here 
;)) for both QWidget and QtQuick applications to interact with the underlying 
windowing system.

So whenever a QWidget figures out that it is a "top-level" widget it request a 
"native window" - by "using" a QWindow (in Qt 4.x and earlier that Window 
Manager interaction was probably all coded into the QWidget (support) classes 
directly).

And I also wrote that a QWindow fits better into the "QtQuick world", since 
there it is indeed a base class (now in the "inheritance" meaning ;)) for 
QQuickView etc. - for the QWidget world you need a "wrapper class:, said 
QWindowContainer.

Also refer to Laszo's reply :)

Cheers,
  Oliver
