The problem is you have Red Hat Enterprise, Oracle Enterprise, Fedora,
and CentOS pulling from the same repository with that line as modified.
So... for example: When a user has 2.2.2 installed from the repository,
then builds the 2.3.0 RCx version from scratch. They end up with two
different looking windows, with objects doing "strange" looking things.
No doubt, here comes yet another "bug" report. Not really a bug, but it
looks like one. That is the basis of my suggestion for continuity.
I have not noticed any performance implications, but then, my box is
built for the Enterprise.

It took me a while to figure out why my local builds looked different
from those I found in the pre-built repositories. I was waiting to
mention this at the next RC cycle to make it easy to correct.
Changing this line will bring continuity across all Linux platforms
for look and feel.
Hi Jeff,
users are welcome to use the lowest common denominator Qt fusion style
for Qt applications, but doing so bypasses the use of many built in
graphics card drawn widgets. You should use the default style unless
there is a good reason not to. The fusion style is meant to provide as
similar look and feel across all platforms but using it has
performance implications.
