From QT5 , it seems that QML will be predominant.

Is that means ,From QT5, QT will not encourage developer to develop UI using QWidget directly?

No. Qt 5 still contains all the Qt widget code and Digia intend to continue to maintain the widget UI. (http://blog.qt.nokia.com/2012/08/09/digia-extends-its-commitment-to-qt-with-plans-to-acquire-full-qt-software-technology-and-business-from-nokia/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheQtBlog+%28The+Qt+Blog%29) QML is getting a lot of airtime because it is new, shiny, and tied to the latest gadgets... widgets are stable and have lost there sex appeal but not their utility. I have yet to see a serious desktop application with a QML UI (but I am happy to be shown one).

How about QtMediaHub? I don't know if it is serious enough but it is certainly more complex than a tic-tac-toe game.
