Happens. Same error message "too many open files" appears in log file
repeatedly, designer-qt4 crashes at file open dialog. Log file is
attached. 

Then I repeated same with strace and to gain clue which
system call gets repeatedly called but now the crash does not happen
any more, file open dialog opens just fine. Quite
mysterious. According to log file akonadi indexing server gets started
in the background and there seems to be bug report from year 2011
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=275261
where steps and symptons are slightly different but partly same story
- if akonadi misbehaves, maybe strace slows it down so that there is still 
one free file descriptor left at the time I hit "file->open" from
menu?

Log file with strace is in 
http://katiska.org/~costello/designer-qt4-strace.log.gz
I did not attach it due to size of 434k but "clean nfs home" example
is attached.

Also, this may have started happening after upgrade big kde upgrade including
kde-baseapps-bin:amd64 (4:16.08.0-1, 4:16.08.2-1) but I'm not certain,
because I don't need to use designer-qt4 very often. Other qt(5)-based
apps work just fine.
