Yes - there is one file that is a disgusting mess of UI and logic: divelist.c

So the UI parts need to be removed and put in their own C++ file. I'll
be happy (yeah, right) to work on that part once someone who knows more
about Qt than I do has created enough of a main window (with the three
panes and maybe with the Ctrl-1/2/3/4 support) that I can try and hook
things in without making a mess :-)

Right now the consensus was "try to make it work on both" as we support
many Linux distributions that don't reallly have a fully supported Qt5
version (things like Ubuntu 12.04LTS).

So far everyone seemed to agree that we will use QtWidgets and not QML.
