Plasma discover developer conforms this fix is sensible.
** Description changed:
Version: 5.13.5-1ubuntu6
Cosmic and Disco
On installing a snap, the transaction in the UI appears to complete and
reach 100% in the progress of the 'tasks', but at that point simply
stays with that status. The UI then does not return to show installed or
allow to be closed. Force closing the UI and starting again show that
the snap installed ok.
This seems to have been addressed in the 5.14 upstream branch (5.13 is
now not getting updates)

not return to normal status.
- * Test by rolling back VM snapshot or purge installed snaps. Repeat
