    Description

      1. Run a project on Windows with gdb debugger and stop at some breakpoint where a QString variable is accessible.
      2. In Locals and Expressions view, right-click on that QString and select "Change Local Display Format..." -> "Separate Window" from the context menu.
        A window showing the contents of the QString will open.
      3. Let the application run on until it quits.
        The debugger window is empty now but it's still being shown. I wouldn't miss it if it had been closed.
      4. Run the project on a different kit with cdb debugger.
        The Debugger windows is still open but it's not being used at all. Now it seems completely pointless to me.
