      I've been waiting awhile, but this behavior is really annoying. When you click on 'Follow symbol under cursor' with a custom QML component, Qt Creator opens the qml file in the build directory (that is, build/Desktop_Qt_6_8_0-Debug) instead of the one from the source code.

      I think this behavior started with Qt Creator 14.

      Steps to reproduce:
      1- Locate a custom QML component.
      2- Right click on it, then 'Follow symbol under cursor' or F2.
      3- Now notice in open documents the file is located in your build directory

      Tested on Manjaro Linux and Qt Creator 14
