Yes, and ideally it would be nice if this toolchain would be easy to use
with QtCreator.
Some weeks ago, I had a look at writing a Yocto plugin for QtCreator
(using Danny/Qt4), and the biggest problem was how you "activate" the
toolchain, sourcing the env setup is good when you work in a shell, but
it would be better if the toolchain comes with a machine friendly
manifest file, this would allow as well to use several yocto toolchains
(eg, for different architectures/machines) from within QtCreator.
My 2 cents.
