QPointer itself can determine that resource is deleted but QPointer* acts like every normal pointer e.g. it can be dangling. So if unbind is called before cast this line will crash.

>  {
> -    Q_UNUSED(resource)

To work your idea this line should be

  delete reinterpret_cast<QPointer<BlurManagerInterface>*>(wl_resource_get_user_data(r))->data()

QPointer *should* live to not be dangling in cast, so you can have a static map resource to QPointer* then you can update and delete them at server die.
