A Screenshot of KWrite `24.12.3-1.fc41.x86_64`'s Tabs for Comment 0.

SUMMARY
-------

When I invoke `systemctl --user edit plasma-powerdevil.service` with
`$Env:EDITOR` set to `$(command -v kwrite)`, the expected (`.conf`) content
opens in another, empty tab labelled “+4” appears too: [^1]

Additionally, the name of the tab does not correspond to the relevant `.conf`
file's filename.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
------------------

~~~bash
#!/usr/bin/env bash
EDITOR="$(command -v kwrite)" && \ # `/usr/bin/kwrite`
systemctl --user edit plasma-powerdevil.service
~~~

EXPECTED RESULT
---------------

I should see solely one tab, and its name should correspond to the filename in
the CLI.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
--------------------

I'm using `kwrite-24.12.3-1.fc41.x86_64`. Regarding the OS & DE:
