Public bug reported:

Configuration:
 Default Xubuntu 11.10 64-bit desktop ISO image. 

To reproduce:
1) Install clean Xubuntu 11.10 to HDD using defaults. 
2) Make sure that GTK2 and GTK3 apps are using default theme in their UI.
3) Install some Qt-based program. For example, qutim. Any other Qt-based app 
which does not uses custom styles by default and relies on system defaults 
should do the trick as well.
4) Launch Qt-based program you've installed.
5) Make sure that Qt-based program ignores UI settings and uses some widgets 
set which looks different than default Xubuntu widgets.

Result:
 All Qt based apps will look poorly in Xubuntu. They will not look like native 
apps in this system.

Expected:
 Qt apps should obey system settings. At very least they should look properly 
with default theme.

Details:
 Some details on this issue and one of possible workarounds has been described 
on http://mikemcquaid.com/2011/12/make-qt-use-the-gtk-style-on-xfce-or-xubuntu/
