Please don’t get me wrong, but that would imply that if enough people (for whatever reason) expect eg. QSettings to be compatible with WinAPI calls that should be changed. If I’m not wrong QThread doesn’t event expose the native handle in a reliable way, so why should Qt support API abuse by the user?
