Description
Quassel makes use of q_foreach (or rather Qt's foreach macro) multiple times in it's code. According to a note in the Qt documentation, "the usage of this macro is discouraged" since Qt 5.7 (http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtglobal.html#Q_FOREACH). The alternative to that is to use C++11's ranged-for loops (as also suggested in the documetation of Qt). Since Quassel requires C++11 for 0.13 onwards anyway, this does not break backwards compatibility to previous releases.
digitalcircuit suggested to handle this whilst doing the huge code cleanup planned for 0.13.

This appears to still be the case in 0.14rc1, marking this as confirmed for now. Pardon the long delay.
