I've done some pretty quick transfers at DFW - It is an efficient airport for terminal transfers, although you do need to get to their skytrain and choose the right one.

And hope it doesn't stop half way between terminals. Yep happened to me!

Even without using the train, with the travellators and connectors airside, it can be no more than a 20 minute walk from any part of of the complex to the D gate from where QF8 would depart.

Still, that does not give a great deal of time if the flight from FLL was delayed, and you could certainly discount any lounge access time. Personally, I'd look for a longer transit.

I always allow 1 hour + for any connection at any airport. Just common sense. Delays happen. With a 50 minute connection a 30 minute delay (which is common) on your inbound flight can suddenly put you under pressure. Who needs the stress?
