SUMMARY
After the recent upgrade of kf5, I'm unable to see krita file previews. When checking preview plugins in dolphin, by default krita thumbnails are disabled, however they are generated anyway. That also happens on new configurations and in clean user environments. When turning it on, krita thumbnails stop generating and [PreviewSettings] block in ~/.config/doplhinrc contains 'kraorathumbnail', however I managed to figure out that thumbnails are now generated with 'kritathumbnail'. Adding it to the [PreviewSettings] block in ~/.config/doplhinrc instead of 'kraorathumbnail' enables krita previews.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable or disable krita previews in dolphin settings.

OBSERVED RESULT
No .kra thumbnails in dolphin

EXPECTED RESULT
.kra thumbnails in dolphin

I have encountered similar bug.
The workaround mentioned in the MR mentioned above:
"To try it out on a live system, simply rename /usr/share/kservices5/kraorathumbnail.desktop to /usr/share/kservices5/kritathumbnail.desktop" 
does not work for me.
Strangely enough it helps viewing .kra files in Gwenview, which was not possible at all before applying the workaround.
BUT Gwenview shows only files created cca after 10th of January this year - which more or less correlates with openSUSE Tumbleweed upgrading to kde-frameworks 5.90

Fix id of krita thumbnailer not matching it's desktop name

Before KIO used KPluginMetaData for the thumbnailers, we would
use the DesktopEntryName for identifying the plugins.
Because the desktop files define no id, we would derive the id
from the library filename instead of the desktop name.

Consequently we should set the id to make sure the plugin can
be correctly identified.
