Heya Richard,

just for the sake of making you aware of existing tools (to save work & share 
ideas): there already is a Qt oriented Clang-based code checker called Clazy 
mainly developed by one of my colleagues at KDAB.

Clazy allows all sorts of checking & refactoring in Qt code. It also has a 
check for 'old-style-connect' & provides fixits for it: IOW, it will transform 
the code to new-style-connect statements if desired.

Worth having a look, maybe you want to contribute some of your code there 
instead so it gets available to a wider audience:
  https://github.com/KDE/clazy

Clazy has already been used to refactor *lots* of code in KDE land 
automatically.

Hope that helps,
Kevin
