I think you left one major one (for us at least) out of your list: the elimination of the QMacPasteboardMime class (the equivalent QWindowsMime class on Windows is also gone). Thiago has previously mentioned on this list that a replacement for QMacPasteboardMime is/may be planned for Qt 5.1, but I assume that is a long way off. Is there any plan to provide an equivalent in QtMacExtras sooner? FWIW, we use these classes to support clipboard formats that Qt doesn't natively support and to override handling of some image formats that Qt does support but which it does not fully support (eg. TIFF images containing floating point data or 16 bit integer data). Thanks Adam
