I was able to reproduce the bug
Changing status.
Agreed. A couple of times I've edited a command with the menu editor, clicked on the entry in Favourites, and then spent time wondering why my "updated" command isn't working properly. If the entry in Favourites were a link instead of a copy, this might fix bug 280949 as well, if "dangling" links weren't displayed.
Hello! This bug report was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this bug is already resolved in Plasma 5. Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described here is still present in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging Thanks for your understanding!
