Qt3 and LSB compliance

It would be good to move Qt 3 from main to universe, it's unmaintained
upstream, is a duplication of another library (Qt 4) and is not
actively used by anything much.
Reverse Build Depends:
Package: avahi Qt 3 bindings can be dropped
Package: cppunit Qt 3 GUI can be dropped
Package: djvulibre Qt 3 GUI can be dropped
Package: qt-x11-free
Package: qwt Qt 3 widgets can be dropped
Package: scribus can be moved to universe
Package: unixodbc Qt 3 bindings can be droped
Package: wvstreams Qt 3 bindings can be droped
This leaves one dependency, lsb-desktop. LSB upstream is pretty
inactive and doesn't seem to be updating to remove this obsolete
library. Do we care about about LSB to keep Qt 3 in main?
