I think that's the point Bo is trying to make - deprecating is fine (though I'm unhappy with it as QtWebEngine doesn't exactly feel ready yet), but removing it in 5.6 (as suggested in your original mail) probably is not. But if I understood correctly, the consensus here seems to be to deprecate it in Qt 5.5 and remove it with Qt 6, which sounds much more reasonable to me.
