I guess that would be possible, and if you continue to add more testrunner
methods using continuation passing style, we may need to, since I do not think
we currently have an easy way to pass a method through the Qt bindings.
That said, Qt has the most convinient interface of all the DRT implementations
with the bindings automatically derived from the C++ declarations. I would
hate to see that go, and since adding a method to Qt DRT is just adding the
C++ method and nothing else, it is no worse than adding an empty
implementation to all the ports that are using the common code.
