      Trying to

      connect(window, &QQuickWindow::closing, myOb ject, &MyObject::receiver);

      produces:

      /usr/include/qt5/QtCore/qmetatype.h:1370:27: error: invalid application of 'sizeof' to an incomplete type 'QQuickCloseEvent'
        Q_STATIC_ASSERT_X(sizeof(T), "Type argument of Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(T*) must be fully defined");
                          ^~~~~~~~~

      The close event type is not public (and a request to change that has been closed as invalid, see #36453), so there is not much reason to deal with it from a C++ point of view and the event should be available with a close-event-less flavor.
