Will this have repercussions in the Maintenance tool? I don't really think that calling Multimedia an "add on" is a reflection of reality, post 1994. For mobile kits (iOS, Android) these are essential features. Sorry, Qt just can't get away with drawing rectangles and text in 2020. I fear this

How about I just pay - which my company already does? The lagging mobile support has us considering moving away from Qt. I think this decision would confirm our direction and only hasten our departure from the Qt ecosystem. I guess to some degree it depends on how you define "essential".
