Is this wasteful new F21 dependency on Nokia intentional? Did I miss an

qtwebkit has used bits from qt-mobility (libQtLocation mostly) for a
very long time.

What uses qtwebkit?

*Lots* of things

I asked a bad question, but you might have done a better job correlating it to
$SUBJECT. The subject is about required components unlikely ever to be used by
other than laptop installations. As a single 3M package previously, I never
noticed the existence of qt-mobility. Obviously the old qt-mobility version
has been broken up into 15 separate rpms of which all are not mandatory, which
apparently means some wireless stuff previously mandatory is now optional,
thus an improvement:

...19/Fedora/i386/os/Packages/q/qt-mobility-1.2.2-0.4.20120224git.fc19.i686.rpm 3.0M
...20/Fedora/i386/os/Packages/q/qt-mobility-1.2.2-0.5.20120224git.fc20.i686.rpm 3.1M
...rawhide/i386/os/Packages/q/qt-mobility-1.2.2-0.11.20140317git169da60c.fc21.i686.rpm 5.8K
&&& (total download size=3.0M)

Less bandwidth consumed at both installation and updates times. :-D

try for yourself,

repoquery --whatrequires qtwebkit

notable items in that list:
kdelibs
kde-runtime-libs
kde-workspace
