Bug ID: 482049

tiled menu alternative
SUMMARY
I'm using the 'Tiled Menu' start menu (https://store.kde.org/p/1160672/). After
the update the from 5.27 to 6.0 it does no longer work, but I get a note that
the application was written for an older version of Plasma (this is *not* the
problem).
The main issue is that the desktop edit mode lost the option to select any
alternatives of it. So when you right click on the the app icon in the task
bar, you have no option to select any alternative start menu like there is for
the default kickoff menu
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install the Tiled Menu
2. Right click on the task bar and enter the desktop edit mode
3. Right click on the icon for the Tiled Menu in the task bar
OBSERVED RESULT
There is no possibility to select "show alternatives" and switch back to a menu
that works.
The problem also is that even you can install the Tiled Menu and switch to it
via the regular KDE UI (desktop edit mode > show alternatives > select tiled
menu; see attached file "tiled menu alternative"), there is no way to change it
back. So it becomes a one way street that you can only fix by removing the
Tiled Menu from the task bar and adding a new one from the widgets list
EXPECTED RESULT
If the Tiled Menu was not updated (which is fine since it's a third party
application after all) show the menu entry to switch to a different start menu
alternative
