Possibly. It certainly won't be fixed by Qt devs, although the patch could
perhaps be backported by distributions. Again, see this:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-42985

Yes, this is also not surprising. It's a Qt bug, it affects the whole of Qt.
The bug is that whenever a monitor disappears (gets turned off or
disconnected), QScreen becomes a null pointer, and Qt crashes on itself. So
it's not specific to DisplayPort (aside from the fact that turning off the
screen when on DisplayPort makes it disappear), and using non-Qt window
managers obviously means you're not affected.
