Can you expand on this?
>You will need a big amount of hacks to make your project work on different platforms. Especially if you do something fancy.
Having done Windows-Linux Qt, I haven't noticed needing "hacks" (unless you count the hacks necessary to build anything on Windows at all cuz the OS wasn't meant for programming ;p).
The fanciest thing I've done is theming (light, dark, etc.), which Qt doesn't seem to support natively, and which is difficult to do sanely without some "hacking".

What issues? Is it just that it's LGPL, or what?
