[Qt-creator] Red Underlines

[Israel Brewster]

I agree that having the line appearing while you are still typing can  
be a bit distracting, but I've never had a problem ignoring it, and  
would much rather have it appear then rather than not appear at all.  
Of course, perhaps the ultimate would be to not have it appear until  
you have stopped typing for a couple of seconds - that way it wouldn't  
be there while you are typing. I don't know if that would be  
reasonable to accomplish, however.
