Future of Pointer Handlers

[Nitroboy]

Hello,

For our application, for now, we are only using pointer handlers (DragHandler, HoverHandler, TapHandler, WheelHandler,...) to handle all user mouse interaction.
But it still lack support for mouse cursor shape and drop (DragHandler) for example.
Is it planned to add them soon ?
More globally, is it intended to completely replace MouseArea (and all the old way to do things) ?

Our application is not already in production, but my point for now is to check if it's worth to invest in them.

Thanks in advance for your participation to the discussion

@Nitroboy I think it would be better to ask these questions on the Qt developers mailing list as this forum is more user oriented.

Thanks @jsulm for your quick reply.
Do I need to enroll before sending a question to the Qt developers mailing list ?

Note that there is a WIP patch to add cursor shapes to pointer handlers : https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtdeclarative/+/286882
