For pure Qtopia (i.e. not 2008.8) unlikely. Trolltech is satisfied with their 
own integrated backend, I don't see any motivation for them to switch to

Most portions of the frameworkd work fine in parallel with Qtopia. Just 
install frameworkd and edit its init script to launch it with "-s 
ogspd,odeviced,ousaged".
