It is not the splitting that makes it crash. It crashes when inserting a new 
object or changing the fill or stroke. I have already posted on this with a 
very early theory. It actually crashes on the painter in the 
fillStrokePreview. It seems the painter (m_painter) for one of the view has 
been destroyed and the software still try to use it.
I will need to understand first how views are getting created... before I can 
see what is happening.

Yes but I am not sure I can debug that one before release, so better a Karbon 
without splitting that crash for release. I will then have time to debug it 
in head and backport the fix if need be.
