Right.

The reason is that I tried to be consistent with Lars's Qt5 white paper,
that talks about a QtDeclarative module that links against QtWidgets and
provides the existing Graphics View based classes. In that case, there
would be a new name for the scene graph based QML engine module.

By the way, with the proposed naming, the QWidget related modules would be
called QtAddOnDeclarative, QtAddOnWidgets etc..

Best regards,
