Truly annoying about Qt Creator is that it frequently shows this box telling that it's parsing QML files.

While it does that, everything hangs. This includes the keyboard, drawing, everything.

Being a very spastic gnome constantly typing things and working hard, this is annoying enough that it will make me destroy LCD screens and keyboards at the same time some day.

Can somebody please put the parsing in a different process with fork()? Or maybe a QThread if you do want to also let the rest of QtCreator crash when the QML parser has a bug. I'm sure you can pass the progressbar's info over popen's FD.
