What I remember is we were not sure it would go into 1.0.  And we were not yet
sure what we wanted to do with a QT compatibility library, if it would ever go
into "meta", another layer, or...

I think LSB compliance makes sense in the meta layer because of the new
"poky-lsb" distro.  It shouldn't hurt to carry this forward and maintain it for
compatibility sake as part of the poky-lsb work.  (But I won't complain if it
doesn't make it into 1.0, and we delay a final decision on if it goes in at all
until later -- I just want to make sure the code isn't lost though...)
