    Description

      The QTextStream class has no virtual functions others than the dtor, so it carries a vtable with no purpose other than making it less efficient than it could be and preventing adding well-defined move semantics.

      We should "deprecate" the polymorphy (adding final as an opt-in) and then make the dtor non-virtual in Qt 7.
