You have an ui.rc on your application. Imagine what would happen if another 
application also expects an ui.rc. If you run it, it'll be completely 
garbled.

There's a reason why application-specific files go in application-specific 
directories.

What I could argue, though, is that you should be able to set this on the 
environment. That would help KDevelop.
