+ consistent behavior between all platforms Qt supports, but is binary
+ incompatible to Qt 5.1 on ARM. The old behavior can be restored by
+ passing -qreal float to configure.
+ - The supported date range in QDateTime has been reduced to about +/- 292
+ million years, the range supported by the number of msecs since the Unix
+ epoch of 1 Jan 1970 as stored in a qint64, and as able to be used in the
+ setMSecsSinceEpoch() and toMSecsSinceEpoch() methods.
+
+ - QUrl and QUrlQuery:
+ * [QTBUG-31660] QUrl no longer considers all delimiter characters
+ equivalent to their percent-encoded forms. Now, both classes always
+ keep all delimiters exactly as they were in the original URL text.
+ * [QTBUG-31660] QUrl no longer decodes %7B and %7D to "{" and "}" in the
+ output of toString()
+ * QUrl no longer supports QUrl::FullyDecoded mode in authority() and
+ userInfo(), nor QUrl::DecodedMode in setAuthority() and setUserInfo().
+ * [QTBUG-31945] QUrl no longer decodes %23 found in the fragment to "#"
+ in the output of toString(QUrl::FullyEncoded) or toEncoded()
+ * QUrl now defaults to decoded mode in the getters and setters for
+ userName, password, host, topLevelDomain, path and fileName. This
+ means a '%' in one of those fields is now returned (or set) as '%'
+ rather than "%25". In the unlikely case where the former behavior was
+ expected, pass PrettyDecoded to the getter and TolerantMode to the
+ setter.
+ * QUrl now normalizes the path given in setPath, removing ./ and ../ and
+ duplicate slashes.

-- QAbstractScrollArea now has a SizeAdjustPolicy. If it is set to AdjustToContents
- it will make use of the protected viewportSizeHint() virtual function. This
- function returns a suggested size based on contents. Note that although the
- viewportSizeHint() virtual function was reserved in 5.0, user code was not
- supposed to be overriding it (as the function was private and undocumented).
- Code that was overriding viewportSizeHint() needs to be recompiled against 5.2
- for this feature to work correctly.
-
-- QTreeView now has setTreePosition to allow the treestructure to show data from other
- columns than logicalindex zero.
-
-- [QTBUG-4206] QTableView resizeToContents will now adjust to actual contents
- and not just visible area. QHeaderView::setAutoResizePrecision() has been
- introduced to control how precise the autoResize should be.

-- QFileDialog::setDefaultSuffix() removes leading dot characters.
-
-- [QTBUG-34132] QFileDialog does not instantiate widgets if a native dialog
- will be used instead. Therefore some accessors which previously returned

Changes in Qt 5.1.0 (missing from released changelog dist/changes-5.1.0)
-- [QTBUG-28088] Remove dependency of DB driver headers on qsqlcachedresult_p.h.
-- Deprecate QSqlError setters.
- The constructor is sufficient, since it has a parameter for each member variable.
-- Rename the SQL driver header files to _p.h (make private)
- The drivers were never public API. They were exposed by mistake in
- public headers. What's more, they have #include'd a private header
- (qsqlcachedresult_p.h) since at least Qt 4.5.1. That means no one used
- those headers in Qt 4 (private headers weren't installed then) and
- it's unlikely anyone did in 5.0.
-- ODBC: Implemented lastInsertId() for some ODBC compatible databases.
-- PSQL: Make lastInsertID work for tables without OIDs.
-- [QTBUG-14904] SQLITE: Fix for Sql query aliases with dots
-- [QTBUG-2192] ODBC: fix loss of milliseconds when binding QDateTime
-- [QTBUG-30076] PSQL: escape backslashes only when server requires it
- IMPORTANT: Applications that implemented their own workarounds must be
- updated to avoid misbehavior and SQL injection vulnerabilities.
-- [QTBUG-10569] ODBC: fixed QODBCResult::exec() return value for DELETE
- operations when no rows are affected.
-- ODBC: Fixed loss of column metadata on SQL_NO_DATA.
-- QSqlTableModel: expose methods for getting primary values.
-- ODBC: Fixed possible cause of spurious errors (commit af35ee291a1bbbc8)
