--- Comment #4 from Nate Graham <[email protected]> ---
Actually what am I saying? That was nonsense.

Basically, when you edit anything in KMenuEdit, your edits take priority over
the original.

If you want to create a new item that will be displayed alongside the original,
you need to change the name of the underlying .desktop file to not be the same
as the original file. That's ultimately what's used for identification. When
two .desktop files have the same name, the one in ~/.local/share/applications
(which is where KMenuEdit puts your edits) will win.

For the case where you intentionally duplicate an item in KMenuEdit such that
it's clear your intention is to show two entries, we would perhaps have it
prompt you for a new filename/ID for it, so it won't be de-duplicated.
