But execute plugin is really needed for plugin work so to don't break strings freeze we can only silently stop heaptrack analysis which is wrong and ugly. I think user should receive normal feedback.

  String freeze holds for the full time in the release branch. What usually is done in such a case where a bug fix really needs to break string freeze, is to ask translators for an exception. Usually a formality, but done at least to show respect to translators and their work.
  
  Cmp. e.g. https://marc.info/?l=kde-i18n-doc&m=151092571015821&w=2 . Once two or more representatives of language teams have okayed (and no-one objected), exception is granted (that is documented somewhere, but could not find that quickly).
  
  So if you see no way around, ask the translators now by emailing such a request to kde-i18n-doc at kde.org Will see to start reviewing in parallel then this WE.
