I still don't hear any concrete feedback regarding QML and Qt Quick - the stack is very suited to desktop apps as well. My FOSS app (1,500,000 downloads) has a Kanban UI written in QML[1] and people seems to like it. I do think the choice of Javascript as the scripting language for QML is not ideal to say the least (although there were some improvements to type safety like using `required` in model-view, etc).

Also, most QML components are just C++ objects exposing QML api. And I think there are some compile flags to convert QML to C++ (even some JS code).
