Yes, that is the only reason. They are bulky and useless, at least in
the case of CMake.
Come to think of it, however, it could be useful if CMake offered the
possibility to install the various parts as different COMPONENTS.
E.g., for ParaView it would make sense to install the Qt headers as
part of a "dev" component.

Do you have a good idea for how to implement "everything except the

Maybe something like:
install(DIRECTORY ... REGEX Headers EXCLUDE)
There's already some pretty gnarly CMake script code in the
fixup_bundle
routines. I'd like to keep it as simple and understandable as
possible.
I'm assuming your reason for not wanting the headers in there is
simply
"they're useless and they take up unnecessary space" -- is there
another
reason or is that it?
Closed source packages may not want headers included in the
frameworks.
