Yea, part of this change would be to no longer provide SETTINGS_PATH as a compiler define. i.e. change this line:
https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/blob/master/src/util/cmdlineargs.h#L74
to call QDesktopServices.

Sorta -- we have a ton of XP users is the thing. 1.12.0 will likely be our last XP support release.
