Notes

Qt security score markers in files.

One conclusion: mark all files in library code, but not examples or tests. Mark with insignificant when it is so, so we don't need to question it in the future.

Tooling could scan the markers, to warn on creation of new files without the marker (perhaps from Bots)

Benefit: it's easier to have it in files, than in abandoned gerrit changes, because its close to the files, and abandoned changes are hard to fine

Should we move critical functions outside of files into critical files, when most other functions are normal? General consensus yet. But the file granularity stays, not at function level.
