Found two issues today (compared to 2.8.1, didn't check 2.8.2):

* cmake-gui doesn't remember whether "Advanced" checkbox was checked or not

* FindQt4.cmake: in all previous versions it was possible to force a special 
Qt version by presetting QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE. This is also what I recommended 
many times on mailing lists to different people. It seems this is not 
possible anymore.

(and another issue in FeatureSummary.cmake which I fixed yesterday already in 
my DescriptionsForFeatureSummaryALL branch)
