That thread seemed to indicate that we are making progress but there are
still bluriness issues here and there. What a pain.

Even with the explanation it still seems baffling to me. I wonder if
Thiago can find someone in the Qt community who could help us with this.

Side note on your patch, Lubomir... >> 1 and << 1 used to be faster with
compilers ca 1985. The compilers that we use today tend to figure these
things out by themselves. And even if we were to save two cycles here -
from a readability perspective I prefer * 2 and / 2.

Thanks
