Make sure the total height does not exceed the original.
I had to shave of the legs of the holder to make it fit the QL without
contacting the metal keyboard plate.

There is 7mm of clearance from the top of the ICs below the battery to
the
top of the tallest component., Most holders are 7.5mm tall. I have
selected
a surface mount, low profile holder that, with the PCB thickness, will
not
be taller than the surrounding components - which leaves 1.2mm of
clearance.

Hope this helps...

It seems to me that only two pins connect the battery, the other pair
being support; am I right?

Yes. I have seen some builds of GC/SGC with a plus sign but I don't think it is a=on all of them. Installation instructions will be needed.
