Comment (by mkae):

 Replying to [comment:29 RJVB]:
 > That isn't really true either. The layout issues we know happened only
 with KDE, and have been addressed in KF5.
 They have been adressed, fully?

 > The only issue with standard (cross-platform) Qt applications is that
 they tend to use the same big font (Lucida Sans 13) everywhere and use
 very generous widget spacing. That's what I meant with "as if designed for
 the visually impaired".
 Ah, ok.

 > The benefits of QtCurve +qtonly will not be as complete because the
 style cannot change the font used, but it should be a start.
 Too bad that the font can't be selected by the theme...

 > I'll look into changing the default then. I've never touched this part
 of the code, so I don't know how much work it'll be.
 OK.


 > Alternatively we could just ship a `stylerc` and instruct users where to
 install that file if they want to use it.
 Yeah, that's what I meant above. You could place it somewhere easily
 accessible and teach the user.

 Or, is it possible to perhaps have variant for that purpose?
