Hi Michael,

First off, please follow mythtv list etiquette and don't top post.

There has been some talk about deprecating the Qt painter.  The OpenGL
painter works much better and has fewer quirks to work around.  If the Qt
painter is not going to be deprecated, then someone is going to have to
step-up and flush out its implementation.
