Qt Creator 4.12.2
Description
Qt developers have a need to use Qt Creator to develop Qt 6.0 modules using the Qt6 CMake projects (CMakeLists.txt based projects).
Some of that desire was expressed offline, some of it online

This is probably a documentation issue as well as some changes needed in the CMake plugin.
Eike confirms that he was able to open qtbase and qtdeclarative with the steps outlined here:

I tested a different list of steps (a longer one) that can be found here https://wiki.qt.io/CMake_Port/Qt_Creator (method 2)
