I think it should be at least a recommendation when wayland is installed
since we're defaulting to run natively. Can we make this behaviour
promoting qtwayland5 to Recommends in libqt5gui5? Because I think people
running X11 will also get the qtwayland5, right? If so, is there other
package that we could use to recommend or depend so it's only installed
when wayland is installed?
I forgot to mention in the first email, but there is a bug filled
against qtwayland5 regarding this matter too [1].

I think so too. I just left for completeness :-)
