"Leftover open fd" is a bit vague: does the number of file descriptors
go up when repeating a particular action?  Which action?

The one I know about is that a file descriptor for a PPD gets left open
when viewing properties for a printer.  It's a bit tricky to fix, as
it's due to a non-trivial reference counting issue somewhere in the UI
code.  The leaked object is a cups.PPD, I think because of a reference
held to it by one of its options, which is referenced by some widget or
other.
