Plasma can’t remember kmenu settings. For example I change name of entry in kmenu edit, Web browser Firefox to Firefox and save it, still in kmenu is visible Web browser Firefox.

I found a workaround: name of Firefox has changed in kmenu when I changed it in firefox.desktop file in 
/home/user/.local/share/applications/

I report it here because I suspect that Plasma 5 has general problem with saving some settings, because there other bugs reports for different elements of Plasma not saving settings:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=398008

I report them separately.

I can't reproduce this, sorry. It might be distro-specific somehow?
