Qt does not have a ribbon UI component, which would be beneficial for both Widgets and Qt Quick.
More information about what a ribbon is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribbon_(computing)
It should be noted that Microsoft has patented certain items related to ribbon component and in the past pursued their rights in court as well. However, this may be changing as Microsoft is opening their patents for others to some extent: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/microsoft-joins-open-invention-network-to-help-protect-linux-and-open-source/
Before proceeding to implementation it should be clarified if Qt could offer a ribbon -like component without infringing existing patents.
