Ouch that's such a short route comparing to the previous DOH-LHR and way below the plane's capabilities, why such a choice?... Any performance issues with the -1000?......

I think it is additional to the DOH-LHR Route. Looks like the performance and reliability is good enough to perform the additional Kuwait service She performs the flight between the LHR flights:

Nothing to do with aircraft performance, much to do with aircraft idleness between long haul flights. QR is doing what EK did (possibly still does, I don't know) with A380s : abuse a large frame sitting at her hub airport to bring there wealthy premium customers from Kuweit with the degree of comfort they like.

It looks like the A350-1000 has been loaded, it's operating doh-kwi on QR1074 outbound and QR1075 inbound, not daily though, and indeed on top of the LHR route...
