SUMMARY
The behavior shown in my screencast can be observed
with any new KCM (look and feel, icon, fonts, workspace and language).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open system settings in icon view mode
2. open some of the new KCMs mentioned in my summary
3. back to all settings and open another KCM
4. back to all settings and open the KCM opened in the step 2 again

OBSERVED RESULT
after the step 4 the KCM has two titles: the correct title and the title
of the "old" KCM opened in the step 3. Watch the screencast please.

EXPECTED RESULT
KCM only shows the correct title.

Hey I get this problem even without having opened a KCM beforehand - if I open up Desktop Behavior (in Icon View!) then close it and open it up again - every time I open it up again (regardless of navigating to a different subsection) I get a random heading.

(It always seems to start out with Activities help you to etc. though - I don't know if that's relevant)

The same happens when you go into 'account details', go back to '< all settings' and click on 'regional settings'.
Or simply switch between (using the mouse-method descibed above):
- account details
- notifications
- regional settings

you'll end up with buggy descriptions in the headers
(notifications e.g. displaying 'date & time' or 'user manager' or similar... quite funny, though :-)

forgot to mention: comment #7 was tested with plasma 5.16.4 on fedora 30 using copr mkyral:plasma-unstable

plasma 5.17 - header of the previous kcm disappears when a setting is modified

This issue persists with Plasma 5.17. To reproduce...

open system settings in icon view mode
open "Shortcuts" kcm
click on "All settings" in the upper left corner
open any of the following KCMs:
global theme
plasma style
colors
icons
cursors
notifications
language
display configuration
audio
thunderbolt

The header of the previous KCM disappears when a settings is modified, see the attached screen recording please.

i can confirm comment #7 on plasma 5.17.0
Still 'funny' headers when switching between kcms

Looks like that's something wrong with the QML kcms.
