Screenshot of shown 'Session and Power' button next to session and power buttons.

I've noticed a cosmetic flaw in KDE Plasma 6.5.2's Application Launcher. I have Application Launcher's 'Session and Power' and 'Show action button captions' set and immediately noticed that, while there is a 'Session and Power' button, clicking it does nothing and all the session and power buttons shows up next to it instead of populating the 'Session and Power' menu.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right-click on the 'Application Launcher'.
2. Click 'Configure Application Launcher...'
3. In the section labeled 'Show buttons for:', click 'Session and Power' and check mark 'Show action button captions' then click 'Apply'.

OBSERVED RESULT
The 'Session and Power' button is left unpopulated and does nothing. Instead, all the session and power buttons appear next to it.

EXPECTED RESULT
Clicking on the 'Session and Power' button should bring up a menu populated with all the session and power buttons.

Thank you for the bug report! This issue is already being tracked in another report, so I'm merging the two.

This is an upstream issue in the Qt qml compiler (it generates incorrect code ins some specific circumstances). A fix there is still in the works.

We think we have a workaround that fixes the symptoms for this menu; it should be included with 6.5.3 tomorrow.
