Title:
  Inappropriate use of Qt

Status in Unity System Compositor:
  Fix Released
Status in unity-system-compositor package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in unity-system-compositor source package in Vivid:
  New

Bug description:
  It has long been my understanding that the system compositor should
  avoid use of Qt to facilitate security review of code that will be
  running with system privileges.

  However...

      find_package(Qt5Core)
      find_package(Qt5DBus)

  ...and:

  void usc::SystemCompositor::qt_main()
  {
      int argc{0};
      QCoreApplication app(argc, nullptr);

  ...etc.
