I'm sorry but all of that is completely wrong. Using layouts that
automatically adapt to fonts, the size of widgets being laid out etc. is
the default way. You could use explicit sizes and positions if you wanted
to, but that would be bad for the reasons you gave. Qt does have a
container concept - that's what a QWidget is (the base class of all
widgets).
