Where to put your mouse for gltich

For months I was trying to casually track down a bug that made you unable to
find certain programs in the KDE Start Menu. I knew it had something to do with
opening the start menu with your mouse over it, but I just narrowed it down
today.

If you click on "Applications" for instance, you'll search the applications
rather than all the files on your computer.

However, if you use a hotkey to open the start menu and have your mouse moused
OVER "Applications", it will visually be the same until you start typing, but
only then will it switch to Applications, but since you've typed a bunch of
letters in, nothing seemingly pops up.

Logically, this kind of makes sense. Visually, it makes no sense at all (maybe
just on my slow laptop?), so I'm not sure if it's just an annoying feature now
that I've got it figured out.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Put your mouse over where the "Applications" panel in the Start Menu appears
2. Open the Start Menu with a hotkey
3. (Bug time): Notice that it's seemingly still in your "Favorites" tab, where
you can search for anything
4: Type in the name of a file
5: Observe yourself not finding the file

OBSERVED RESULT
- File isn't shown in the Start Menu


EXPECTED RESULT
- File would be shown

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Linux 5.5, also according to Reddit tons of people with
different distros are getting it
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.69.0
Qt Version: 5.14.2
