I am looking into how feasible it is for me to attempt to write a l4re
lighthouse plugin (QPA) for Qt5 on L4Re. I do not have much experience with
this sort of low level development but I want to attempt this while
learning, so I am trying to understand the GUI layers in L4Re. I will share
the code with the community if my effort is successful.
