Oh nice! I was just looking for something like this to introduce people unfamiliar or uncomfortable with the command-line to rclone. This comes at a very opportune time for me, and I see it's written in understandable C++, so I can do a cursory examination to make sure it doesn't do anything weird.
I'm also thankful it's an Qt cross-platform application instead of some of the other ways of accomplishing cross-platform GUIs these days, which tend to bundle large dependencies while only making use of a small subset.
It's perhaps not ideal that you have to shell out to rclone but the relevant Github issue has not seen much activity [1]. I've been considering using a Go binding to Qt to have the GUI code call the classes directly instead of having to go through the command-line first.
