Actually GSL owner is simply definded as as alias to *T,  so you can add it without breaking any ABI or  API.

And I want to remind you it is about QtCreator, which has no guarantees. So it would be nice if you get in context. 

Actually it looks like you cannot agree on your assumptions, so it's maybe time to find arguments to provide some agreeable fundamentals. Otherwise I don't see how this discussion can be reach any cooperative level at all.
