Yes, it happened for a reason ;)
The idea is to synchronize settings between classic and WinRT applications. The change is here: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/124917/
If Qt5Package is not able to follow includes, then that should be fixed as it is likely to break elsewhere at some other point.
