I looked through the QtCore files.

Some things:

if (NOT _Qt5Core_target)
    set(_Qt5Core_target 1)
    add_library(Qt5Core SHARED IMPORTED)
    if (NOT "" STREQUAL "")
        set_property(TARGET Qt5Core PROPERTY FRAMEWORK 1)
    endif()
endif()

I think you can simply do:

if(NOT TARGET Qt5Core)
  add_library(Qt5Core SHARED IMPORTED)
  if (NOT "" STREQUAL "")
      set_property(TARGET Qt5Core PROPERTY FRAMEWORK 1)
  endif()
endif()


Can this also handle already static builds of Qt ?

Why do you have an if() around including Qt5CoreMacros.cmake and 
Qt5CoreConfigExtras.cmake ?
