Alberto, can you please confirm if the above is good enough for you for
now? And if not, please describe what other use case this lacks support
for?

Bug description:
  On the phone, a splash screen is shown as soon as QGuiApplication is instantiated; however, a QWindow might be created much later, or not be created at all.
  We have for example a D-Bus service (ubuntu-system-settings-online-accounts) which is a QGuiApplication, but creates QWindows only as client requests arrive. In the common case, this works fine because the service is generally started when a window needs to be displayed, but we are now preparing for implementing trust session support, and that would require either this bug to be fixed, or a deeper refactoring of our code.
