I think that that would still have been likely rejected - the tiocketed destination would still be Doha and so wouldn't be a transit. Would need to be somewhere where Doha was a transit point ; something like LHR-DOH-MCT / MCT-DOH-LHR would be valid ( of course would then depend on rules for Oman as to whether that would be permitted )

It seems valid since DOH would be the ticketed destination for an open jaw return - the destination of a ticket is never a transit point - you can only transit en-route to a destination/stopover point
