-Following existing Qt Widgets have issues with Maemo 5 theming/Maemo 5 UI Style:
-* Toolbar does not have correct height [Toolbar sizeHint is 48px] => Visual height should be 70px in Maemo 5.
-* Toolbar icons do not have correct size (HILDON_ICON_SIZE_FINGER)
-* <s>Dialogs do not have finger size buttons (HILDON_SIZE_FINGER_HEIGHT)</s>
-* Dialogs do not theme dialog buttons as such (different theme from normal buttons)
-* Dialogs have type icons (e.g. warning) where has in Maemo 5 use of those icons is not allowed.
-* <s>Dialog buttons should stack on top of each other, but currently they layout themselves horizontally</s>
-* Checkboxes should be embedded into button => Checkboxbutton. [Checkable QPushButton have to be themed or this will be part of an extra lib]
-* <s>keyboard accelerator hints (underscores) are being shown, while Maemo 5 UI Style requires them to be hidden</s>
-* <s>Stock dialogs use button strings such as "OK" and "Cancel", which are forbidden in Maemo 5 UI Style. "OK" should be replaced with an action string or with "Done".<s> The "Cancel" should be removed, as dialogs are cancelled by tapping outside of the dialog.</s>
-* stock "Exit" command should be removed from the menus. It is not allowed in Maemo 5 UI Style. [Legacy menus should not be used]
-* <s>Sliders/Scales</s>
-* <s>Button heights? [minimal pushbutton height sizeHints is set by the style to 65px]</s>
-* <s>Text input fields</s> [Style is okay]
-* text areas(?)
