No, please not! You know we developer are all lazy guys, so we will not
port our code unless we are forced to do so...

Take a look at how many old KDE applications out there are still using
IDs for menu entries instead of Q/KAction. If we don't make a hard cut,
applications will use deprecated methods for ever, believe me!

And I see no point why developer should start porting their application
over and over again, instead of doing a big port once and concentrating on
new features or bugfixing afterwards.

Ciao,
Tobias
