Hi,

Thanks for the great summary. :-)

I'm not sure which one is already done, but I think I saw the changes for "File 
open/save dialogs" and/or the "Global Qt settings" problem already in the Qt 
4.8 sources.

There is also an issue with macdeployqt. For example when my app make use of 
QtCore, QtGui and QtXml and after i run macdeployqt, then there are also 
QtNetwork, QML and QtSvg related frameworks packaged which isn't correct and 
aren't necessary. This behavior is the same for plugins.

Nevertheless I think one more issue is the problem when an app gets updated 
from the Mac App Store as I already posted today. But here I'm not sure if the 
issue is from apple, Qt or from myself.

Best Regards
