The favourites in Kickoff should switch their title and sub-title (e.g. Dolphin - File Manager) accordingly whenever the option "Show applications by name" is changed. Currently, they remain unchanged, which can lead to a mix of both, and removing and re-adding a favourite is necessary to update it.

I can confirm the Favorites view does not update the setting at runtime, only when plasmashell is restarted
An AppEntry gets this setting from the rootModel, however the KAStatsFavoritesModel doesn't signal a change when this setting is changed, hence it only updating on restart or when adding a new favorite.
