This is mostly straight-forward, but some things are worth noting:
1. Yes, this is necessary. The noexcept operator looks for noexcept tagging,
not at the contents of the function to determine whether to return true.
The more conditionally-noexcept functions are used, the more important it
becomes that low-level classes are correctly marked noexcept. In that, it
is like constexpr.
2. In accordance with the rules governing noexcept specifications for the
standard library itself, the get*() functions, as well as any function
taking (but not returning) channel values as ints or qreals, or taking
QStrings are not marked as noexcept, since they have preconditions and
thus a narrow contract. Narrow-contract functions should not be noexcept.
All other functions have wide contracts (ie. no preconditions).
3. Any function returning QString can throw (bad_alloc).
Consequently, they, too, are not marked nothrow.
