No, they should have kept it a development branch until 4.3 or 4.4. It wasn't until then that it was really usable.

What's really funny and sad is that the GNOME team made the exact same mistake with Gnome3.

With the additional issue of too much Gnome-isms creeping into GTK3. The one benefit Qt has is that it is being maintained by a independent entity from KDE. One that intends for Qt to be its own product, and properly cross platform.

4.0 was meant to be a development branch, various distros pushed it out anyway.
