What about lldb and in case this is meant as security measure(?): this only checks a tail, ie. ~/mysuperspytool/trick_kwin/gdb would work just as well - check the binary to be UID0 at least?

Reopening, and awaiting review from maintainer to not need to revert it again.
What why?

Yes, this is existing check is pretty rubbish, but adding gdbserver doesn't make it any less so.

The existing check is btw what IIRC the man page suggested 😉 so not completely rubbish. It's not secure, but that's not the point of it. Extending the check seems fine to me.
