This change also affects composer in a big way, in that it's no longer possible to have a HTML composer item. QtWebEngine has no support for rendering using a QPainter, and without this ability we lose the possibility of vector rendering of HTML content. Hopefully this is addressed before QWebPage is removed from Qt5, but I honestly doubt it will be. I'm not sure what our alternatives are. We could fall back to using QLabel and it's limited subset of HTML, or ..? In the meantime, I'd suggest not relying too heavily on HTML content in compositions!
