Research direction
Locate IntellijAzureActionManager$ActionGroupWrapper and the actions.function.function_app entry in the IntelliJ plugin configuration. Start by reading the action class and plugin.xml, then inspect how the action appears in ServicesPopup. Done means the action has non-empty default text and opening the Services popup no longer reports the PluginException.
