i spoke to a few troll tech guys about this at LWE and CeBit. They stated 
there there alot of design issues with splitting up the libraries as such.

if this is no-longer the case or if there is enough of a need i am all for a 
libqtutil.  the largest issue would be if libqtutil would be stand alone, 
like qtmt or would i need to have to link applications against both -lqt and 
-lqtutil?

Forgiveme for not completely understanding the process, but I for one am a 
big fan of being able to use the nongui elelments of QT.

QSocket and QXML are very handy in my modeling and simulation work when 
building distributed models.  It is just currently i have to have QT 
installed on all of my nodes, wasteing alot of memory.
