I have found how to reproduce the bug! PLEASE, REPAIR IT.

1) file ~/.local/share/applications/org.kde.kate.desktop contains blocks
in the following order and everything works as it should (Kate is
searchable in the dash and can be pinned to the dash bar):

[Desktop Entry]
...
[Desktop Action Session ...]
...

2) open Kate, new session

3) click menubar Session > Save session (choose name, save)

4) the file ~/.local/share/applications/org.kde.kate.desktop rewrites
itself (as it should) but contains blocks in a wrong order!

[Desktop Action Session ...]
...
[Desktop Action Session ...]
...

[Desktop Entry]
...

5) suddenly, kate icon moves to the bottom on the dash bar, when clicked
by the right mouse button, you can no longer pin it nor find it among
the dash applications

6) you have to manually open
~/.local/share/applications/org.kde.kate.desktop and move the [Desktop
Entry] block to the beginning of the file
