I would love to hear some “official” input on this. Our project will be migrating to Qt5 later on this year. One of our 3rd-party services is embedded into our product as a webpage. That 3rd-party makes use of nsapi plugins. Primarily for pdf viewing. We have then used QWebPluginFactory to create our own internal PDF viewer plugin (using poppler). If we can’t do that in Qt5, that is going to be a problem.
