I guess it depends a bit on how "Qt widgets to take advantage of a GPU" is to be interpreted. I don't think that special GPU support for painting some QPushButton was asked for. Playing a video inside a QWidget based application might be closer. When I look at my second monitor right now I see kaffeine (something capable of playing videos with a Qt Widgets GUI) running, and if I am to believe intel_gpu_top output it does utilize the GPU. Some _something_ with Media, Widgets and GPU (keywords from the original mail) works in practice.
