Hi,

QApplication::globalStrut is a property that has outlived its purpose.

IIRC, then I added that in the early Qt 2 days, anticipating that with 
Qt/Embedded we might see our widgets landing on touch screens “any moment now”. 
The idea was to have a global setting that ensured that widgets and other 
interactables (such as menu items, list items, checkbox markers etc) are at 
least x,y pixels large.

Well, the world has moved on, and the value has never been consistely used in 
styles or widgets anyway.

This change deprecates this API for Qt 5.15:

Unless anyone disagrees, this will be followed by a Qt 6 change that purges 
this from the code.


Cheers,
Volker
