Comment (by RJVB):

 Status? No idea TBH. The procedure itself probably evolved a bit since I
 created this ticket, which I haven't kept up to date for lack of activity
 on it.

 I did bring up the idea of using a wrapper around `depends_lib` to have a
 standard and above all clean way of declaring dependencies on Qt5
 components that will work with both port:qt5 and port:qt5-kde (and
 port:qt5-kde-devel, for us if we never commit it) by hiding details like
 the appropriate path- style dependencies. I don't think there has been
 negative feedback.

 It would make sense to introduce this (and incite port maintainers to use
 it) even before we start the introduction process for port:qt5-kde .
