Hehe, I think that goes for anyone doing more than once in a lifetime :)

I'm a little less stressed than I was when we discussed this on IRC.
Since mozilla ebuild uses mozqt to check if it should build with
qt-support I think it would be ok to still support it.
If so we should add a very large comment in the default make.conf that
this is a very instable option. But there might be people needing this
(I imagine mozilla builds some kind of mozqtembedd.so or something that
can be used as an html-widget in other apps?).
If there is such a library, would it be possible to build it while at
the same time use Gtk+ for Mozilla internals, thus not making the
Mozilla program instable?
About the XLIB-stuff I think it would be ok to drop it, as you say, Gtk+
is not a heavy dependency.

Thanks, you rock!
