P5: Not important Description
When using Shiboken to generate documentation and the input files are from doxygen, the queries generated to search for const methods are wrong.
To reproduce, decompress the attached files and inside the folder run:
doxygen Doxyfile
It will generate, among other things, xml/classFoo.xml
<doxygen ...> <compounddef id="classFoo" kind="class" language="C++" prot="public"> ... <sectiondef kind="public-func"> ... <memberdef ...> ... <argsstring>() const</argsstring> <name>testFunction</name> <briefdescription> </briefdescription> <detaileddescription> <para>This is a test function. </para> </detaileddescription> ...
Then run
shiboken6 --generator-set=qtdoc -I. --output-directory=./doc --documentation-data-dir=./xml --library-source-dir=. --doc-parser=doxygen ./wrappedclasses.h ./test.xml
to generate the module documentation. The output is:

Shiboken wasn't able to find the comments for testFunction and they are missing in the rst file.
If you look in the output at the query for testFunction, there is a space in "() const " that doesn't exist in the xml file.
