Yes: I will deprecate and at some point remove X2Go Browser Plugin. As browsers
dropped NPAPI-based plugins, there's no way to keep it alive. The last time I
checked, Qt didn't support PPAPI either.

The web browser plugin infrastructure was completely dropped in Qt 5. Looking
forward, we definitely need to upgrade.

Don't place bids on the browser plugin staying around.
