This is part of the problem I'm referring to when I say "tracking the
changes in the API".

Yes, it would have to be new approach all together.

There is still merit in having a one-to-one ocaml wrapper for Qt. If
you can do the wrapping using some generator operating on the headers,
even better.

But I would encourage that a higher level, functional wrapper is used
for applications. It would be a shame if heavy object orientation
affected user interface codebases because of such necessity.
