To summarise:
- Qt is a graphical toolkit

...and I used it to create a graphical application.
But then my users wanted to create hard copy from
batch jobs running on our compute farm. Those machines
do not provide access to an X server and, as we have discovered,
Qt needs an X server for a lot of things.

So, now, if my app does not detect an X server, I start up
an Xvfb instance and continue on with use of a regular QApplication.

Works great.

- Some Qt classes shouldn't be part of QtGui
- We have to accept that Qt doesn't give a bullock about mathematical
exactness (Graphical rendering is key)

My 2 cents.
