First of all, thanks you all for your replies.

Ideally they should get removed *before* qt4 itself, but there is no
need to rush. A good moment to consider asking for their removals is
whenever we set the bugs' severities to important, which won't happen
soon. On the other hand, knowing that you already stated that they can
be removed alongside Qt 4 itself I *will* ask for their removal citing
your replies whenever we get to remove Qt4. But again, the sooner the
better, as some other packages might be depending on yours (you won't
believe the amount of strange things you might find out when removing
packages...).

Thanks!
