With respect, there's no reason to leave an entire quickdraw under normal circumstances. If you can't swap out your quickdraw for a cheap carabiner you're willing to sacrifice, you probably shouldn't be sport climbing, cleaning anchors, etc. I disagree for beginners, screwing around mid-route swapping gear isn't something they should be doing.
If they can't get how to perform this, they shouldn't be leading.
And as markc mentioned, especially cleaning an anchor.
