Qt Creator custom split view settings for edit and debug

Is it possible to have different split settings for Edit and Debug mode in Qt Creator?

I am:

Now when I switch do debugging mode:

Can I somehow tell Qt Creator to remember each split?

(I couldn't find a setting for this inside the Options or the Window menu)

Although it's not exactly the solution I was looking for, it somehow fits my purpose:

  1. use QtCreator without splitting window
  2. go: Window -> Open in new Window
  3. repeat 2 as often as desired
  4. place the new window(s) as you wish

This will offer a second/third editor window.
Now if you switch between Editor and Debug in the first window, the second won't care about this.

However, this only works in versions 2.8.0 or higher.

Side note:
It's not perfect yet: QtCreator is somewhat creative which window to use for Debugging - it's nearly always the window I'm not looking at ;-)
