Description popov895 2021-04-25 17:48:02 UTC 
SUMMARY

The "Open Terminal" action opens the default terminal app, which is not always Konsole. It would be nice if this action would show the icon and name of the terminal application to be opened, eg. "Open Konsole", "Open Terminator".

Agreed.
Comment 2 shenlebantongying 2021-04-26 19:29:19 UTC 
It seems we can simply read `TerminalApplication` from `~/.config/kdeglobals`

Maybe do some copy-paste from this file?
