Oh, forgot to write about this one -- slots would really be more Qt-ish,
but I cannot simply connect to the myReceiver's slot and emit a
signal(returnType), since returnType varies (it's a template) - and the
signal names are predetermined at compile time. The best I could get is
emitting a SIGNAL(finished(returnValue)) - which still couldn't be
connected to a SLOT(slotFinished(int)).

Can I possibly call a given slot in a QObject manually, with given
parameters? I guess it is possible if moc does it. I'll research into
it.
