We should add a function obviously. To change the graphicssystem at the
runtime. It is actually painfullm command line doesn't solve the problem an=
d
more the compilation option (where you can set raster by default) doesn't
solve any problem.
We should have something like setGraphicsSystem in QApplication. It should
be possible to do it quite easily i guess.
