X2Go only works with applications that run as X11 clients. The  
x2goagent binary is an X-Server that the applications connect to when  
started.

I cannot image that Qt5 fully lacks X11 support. Only thing is that  
Ubuntu migrates to Mir (not Wayland AFAIK) and heavily pushses  
resources into Qt development (as Unity and Unity Greeter will move to  
Qt as widget framework).

If the upstream people of KDE decide for that path, then X2Go will  
have to make it without KDE.

Greets,
Mike
