Screenshot of the menu.

SUMMARY
In 'Configure Desktop > Mouse Actions', there is an option to bind an application menu to a mouse action on the desktop. The menu that appears when you do this does not display ampersands in category names (eg. `Science & Maths`, `Lost & Found`; see attached screenshot).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right click on Desktop > Configure Desktop > Mouse Actions.
2. Bind 'Application Launcher' to middle-click.
3. Middle-click on desktop.

OBSERVED RESULT
Category names are displayed stripping ampersands.

EXPECTED RESULT
Categroy names should be displayed with ampersands.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux distro: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.63.0
Qt Version: 5.13.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I couldn't figure out any other place where this menu is used. The ampersands are displayed properly in the launcher plasmoids.
