keepassxc not fully packaged, had to manually install qt5-wayland

I run wayland.
Just installing keepassxc made it crash:

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in ""
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

I had to manually install qt5-wayland. Couldn't this be shipped with the package?

That has nothing to do with keepassxc, it has to do with qt5, specifically qt5-base, which already has the optional dep.
