still unable to attaching to a child process on a remote device

The situation is the following:

An application is running an a remote device; The application starts a child process and I want to attach to this process and set a breakpoint inside it.

In earlier version of QTCreator (I don't remember which) there were two items in Debug menu: "Attach to Remote Debug Server..." and "Start Remote Debug Server Attached to Process". Playing with them I was able to attach to the child process and debug it. Now to do the same I need to get the pid of the child process (running "top" on the remote device), start the gdbserver (manually) telling it to attach to the process and then, when the gdbserver is ready listening, "Attach to Running Debug Server" from the Debug menu of QTCreator.

It works but it's quite troublesome. In earlier versions this was easier.
