I just attached my actual screenshot. As you can see, I have a lot of windows
opened. (See taskbar.)
Yes, there are not so many konsole windows among them.
But it is still possible I will need 300 konsole windows at some point.

Again: this bug is very easy to fix, just apply advice from that article (
https://0pointer.net/blog/file-descriptor-limits.html ), which is good practice
anyway, i. e. raise fd soft limit to hard limit.

Possibly this should be done in all kde apps or even in all qt apps
