You can argue with the people that handled it through the tracker, I don't
prioritize bugs. From my point of view, however, it falls strictly into the
P1 category - it's a regression from the last version, not an edge-case
data loss, and it's pretty embarrassing.

My own opinion is that the all-members list should be removed.

I think no, unless there's another way to search for a method in the
hierarchy. Allowing for a somewhat contrived example:
Say I'm working with `QTemporaryFile` I know there exists something for
checking about it being readable but I don't know exactly from where it
comes from, then the all-members page is really useful. That use-case gets
even more prominent for classes that implement interfaces and/or that have
multiply inherited (e.g. QLabel's indirect inheritance from QPaintDevice).
