Fine with me, but be aware that recompiling the dependencies may be a lot of hassle, and that all build servers will have to be updated.
vs2015 is compatible starting with qt5.6, but for that we need to replace qwebkit with qwebengine, and for that we need to have qwebengine in the ubuntu repo's. So until we have the latter we should probably leave this as is.
An alternative would be gcc on windows, but we should verify if asio support is fine, as this was an issue in the past
We can use VS2015 for the current qt version. Or starting with qt5.9 we can use VS2017.
Main advantage would be better C++11 support.
