Regarding Qt 5 - is it still early enough for bigger changes?
Qt 5 is already in feature freeze.
In Qt 4 there is ugly bug:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165044
This bug was closed wontfix (and because of heated discussion, bug
assignee removed himself from cc list), after some time they changed
resolution to "upstream" which just means "wontfixed in upstream".
There is also
http://www.macieira.org/blog/2011/09/qurl-in-qt-5-encoding/
where this is going to be fixed in QUrl (if I read it correctly), but
Thiago said the same again - file names with broken (non-utf-8) encoding
are filesystem corruption and applications creating such files should be
fixed.
Even if it weren't, I doubt Qt upstream would change their mind there,
sorry.
It's nothing we can do anything about in Fedora in any case.
