It is possible to do this for example:
QVariant v = QVariant::fromValue<MyCustomQObject*>();
QObject *object = v.value<QObject*>();
This means that if a QVariant contains a pointer to a QObject
derived type, third parties can extract a QObject* and use its
properties without knowing the concrete type.
This is a source compatible change.
