    Description

      We have already gotten several bug reports about customisation of native styles not working. We've documented ([1] [2] [3]) that this is not a supported use case, but we need to find a better solution. We need to warn and ideally prevent the user from doing so.

      Warning and preventing it at compile time with qmllint would be ideal, but won't be enough until qmllint is enabled by default in Creator, because currently you have to go out of your way to use it.

      Warning and preventing at runtime is the next best option.
