    Description

      Currently Qt unified installer just uses "Mozilla/5.0" as its user-agent. However, this could cause trouble as many abusers and bots are also using "Mozilla/5.0" and mirror admins would prefer to completely block this UA.

      With a dedicated UA (like "QtUnifiedInstaller/xx.xx" or anything else), web admins hosting qtproject could easily distinguish requests from Qt unified installers and make web server config simpler.
