 When you use ``--gui=qt`` or ``--matplotlib=qt``, IPython can work with either
 PyQt4 or PySide.  There are three options for configuration here, because

 v2 is also the default for PyQt4 on Python 3.  IPython's code for the QtConsole
 uses v2, but you can still use any interface in your code, since the
 Qt frontend is in a different process.
