I went to look online for what will be in Qt Creator 4.8, and didn't find 
anything. Well I did, but I saw a lot of old Qt 4.8 proper stuff. I'm wondering 
if versioning QtCreator to be the same as the Qt version it is built with is 
becoming a good idea? Qt 4.8 is still going strong in some communities. This 
does complicate versioning a little, as a release of Creator might come before 
(or after) a release of Qt. But they do seem to coincide quite often. ANd since 
Qt is built with the latest Qt, isn't it a 5.x anyway? 

Just a thought.

Anyway, what's on the way for 4.8? 
My own desires are:
 https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-20941 - Device status indicator 
(please?)
Nice to have: 
 https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-21022 - Standardize Qt Kit Names 
(for Qt Creator?) (got a lot of interest on 'interest' ml)
 https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-20445 - Process status icons on 
output panes

And for the love of whatever your favorite deity is, please stop injecting two 
" when there is a non-whitespace character to the right of where the quote will 
be. 'this|d' should not ever become 'this""d'! It is not helpful. Then when you 
backspace to get rid of ONE of the two, it gets rid of BOTH so you're back 
where you started. No other editor in existence behaves this way. I've lived 
with this for a decade now and it still trips me up!
