I agree. Making XEmacs a proper TextEditor KPART would be quite
useful.
The only relevance of RMS opinion here seems to be that such code would
not end up in Emacs. The license is not a problem (except for Windows,
but XEmacs doesn't need to support Qt under Windows). It is unfortunate
that Emacs will not support some free software such as KDE, but it
shouldn't stop XEmacs from doing it IMHO.
Indeed. And XEmacs has a long history of implementing and supporting things
that are politically incompatible with Emacs/RMS views. I don't see why we
should stop now. A Qt port should be relatively decoupled from most of the
core just as gtk is now.
