Template upgrade triggers application icons regeneration, which takes a while. During that time, KDE menu is mostly unusable because it disappears right after opening it (reloads configuration after file change detected?).

We just need to make sure that kbuildsycoca4 is not called for each AppVM individually, but rather just once after all the AppVMs appmenus got updated.

kbuildsycoca4 is not the only one problem - regenerating .desktop files also triggers some internal KDE reload. But is much less intrusive - menu returns to VMs list, not disappears completely. Also that .desktop files regeneration is rather quick in comparison to kbuildsycoca4 calls.

In short: not all problems fixed here, but it is IMHO good enough now.
