Not sure if it will help, but you may wish to have a look at kdevelop. I believe they're close to having a debugger interface that can display some Qt4 types in a useful way.

I've experimented a little with these macros (seems they're called sequences (of user-defined commands) in gdb parlance). I've attached a few to the bugzilla issue, along with a simple program for testing these macros. You will need Qt4 installed in order to test. You can grab the open-source edition of Qt4 from www.trolltech.com (as long as you're developing for open-source). I used ddd as a front-end to gdb for testing the sequences. ddd allows me direct access to the (gdb) prompt, which is handy for this task.
Anyone feel like having a stab at some STL sequences? I ran into a problem with QList and QVector types, which are template classes. Not sure how to tell what the template type is in gdb. Same problem goes for STL.
