We switched to qt5 by default (#6938) and don't fall back to qt4, it seems.

I tend to feel that this is the correct behavior. We kind of deprecated Qt4 and it might lead to graphical issues. Qt5 is the environment that allows us to compete with other GUI apps.
IMO a manual -with-gui=qt4 in case of missing qt5 is okay because it makes user aware that they don't use the recommended dependencies.
