If I understand it correctly there's no LGPL download of the Qt SDK for Visual Studio?
Does this mean this combination is prohibited or is there some legal work-around?

You can download LGPL Qt for windows.
And you can configure it to work with MSVS2008.
The Qt addon for msvs is also freely downloadable.

It's here: http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/windows-cpp-vs2008
Licensed under the same terms as the MinGW version - closed source dynamic linking acceptable, static linking only for commercial version unless your project is open source.

Okay I thought I needed the full SDK to develop programs but appearanty I don't.
Then what's the difference between these two categories:
Qt SDK: Complete Development Environment
and
Qt: Framework Only?

Qt: Framework Only contains the framework only.
Qt SDK: Complete Development Environment contains everything you need to compile Qt programs, including the GCC compiler, Qt Creator IDE, etc... It's a complete development environment.
If you using Visual Studio, theres no need for Qt Creator or the compiler, as you have a suitable one already.
