This needlessly removes existing functionality. We promised to try hard to not do that in the Qt 4-> Qt 5 transition. Removing the typedef is essentially a showstopper for people currently relying on double. Leaving the 'qreal' typedef (to float...) hurts less as it can be fixed by recompilation, and is not does not affect code size and performance compared to a global search&replace.
