[Qgis-developer] STL vs. Qt containers

Hi devs,

QGIS code uses a mixture of containers (e.g. map, vector, list, set)
from standard C++ library and Qt. I'd like to hear your opinions about
moving completely to Qt containers (QMap, QVector, ...). Benefit of
this would be a "smoother" and more Qt-ish API, possibility to use
java-style iterators and more.

Overview of the containers:

If noone objects against it, I would change it in the refactoring
branch. This will allow making the python bindings easier.
