SUMMARY This is an odd bug: "Account Details" works just fine if you click on it, but you can't click on it in the search results. Same behavior in Icon View and Sidebar View. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start typing "account" in the search bar OBSERVED RESULT "Account Details" is grayed, while "Online Accounts" is selectable. EXPECTED RESULT Both should be selectable. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.69.0 Qt Version: 5.14.2
How bizarre. Can reproduce.
Still present in 5.19.0
Because it contains multiple items, opening it crashes as reported in bug #423638. It should be grayed out as are all items with multiple items inside.

If it's not a bug, it's a quite confusing UX. Why wouldn't the search results let you click on items that are normally clickable in the list? Either: 1. hide grayed out entries with no children 2. show grayed entries along with all children (even when they don't match) 3. allow selecting these entries (my preferred behavior)
Also happens for "Settings" (Network sub heading). * Attempt to click on "Settings" (works) * Search for Settings, the "Settings" in the pane is greyed / disabled. PS: Also happens for "Regional Settings"
That's the parent category appearing in the search. I guess the bug is that we shouldn't show any parent categories that have no children in the search results.
Seems to be fixed now.
