the whisker menu, with its title is shown

If the title of Whisker Menu is edited, it renames itself to "Applications Menu" after a reboot, or logout/login.

I am using Xubuntu 20.04 with `xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin` version 2.4.3-1

I have attached a screenshot.

Once the new version is released, could you mark it something like an important or security update? Otherwise Debian and LTS version of Ubuntu probably would not update to that version.
