I noticed that Silverblue has Qt installed, despite having excluded all applications which might use it (since they come via Flatpak). Let's remove Qt as well, then, and save some space.

Wouldn't this mean that if the user overlays some Qt application then they will loose the Qt GNOME integration (though adwaita-qt5). Or is it being required by some qt5* packages? @jgrulich do you know?
