Bug Description
Version: 5.62.0-0ubuntu1
Releases: Eoan and Focal
Symptoms: When using systemsettings application, the 1st "Get new stuff" request in a control module fetches and displays the correct online restults from the KDE store. However, switching to another control module without closing system settings and then requesting "get new stuff" there wrongly displays the results from the previous module.
For example, open systemsettings and go to colours, and GNS for colour schemes brings correct result. Then move to window decorations module, and GNS there, wrongly shows colour schemes again, not window decorations.
A proposed fix for the caching is in review currently by KDE: https:/

SUMMARY
When wanting to install customizations trough System Settings "Get New ..." buttons. The window to download stuff always shows the items from the first category you opened the "Download New ..." for.
(Free translation as my system isn't in english)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open System Settings and navigate to Color schemes section, hit "Get new ..." button.
2. Close the "Download new ..." window
3. Navigate to Workspace themes and hit the "Get new ..." button
OBSERVED RESULT
1. The window will display the search for color schemes
2. Same happen the other way around and with other sections combinations (Icons & Cursors, Cursors & Colors, etc.), it always shows the first thing you searched for.
3. Desktop Effects, SDDM and Start Up themes doesn't seem to be affected.
EXPECTED RESULT
It should show the results for the current category.
