Using GTK is out of the question. So the choice is doing something with Qt, or nothing at all. As stated before, I know that the chances for integration are almost nil (although I don't see why it would refused if the core Emacs src is left untouched and the new display engine is just a few .cpp files that are ignored unless you turn the right knob at configure time.) In any case, if it reaches the demo phase, it would motivate others to do something equivalent based on requirements acceptable by the Emacs devs.
