In case of something long in krunner you can't read the whole string because of one line restriction and fixed krunner width.
This patch enables tooltips where you can read anything krunner shows.

The patch does not apply because of an extraneous milou in the path for your diff:
milou/lib/qml/ResultDelegate.qml
should be
lib/qml/ResultDelegate.qml
Consider setting up arc; it makes the patch submission process so much simpler and less error-prone. :)

Thanks, the patch applies now.
Can you verify that this works for you? When I apply the patch (and reboot for good measure), I still don't see tooltips for items whose names are elided in KRunner.
Found out that sometimes displayed text appears to be elided (not always reproducible)
Resolution: 1920x1080, dpi: 142
Additionally, tooltips are glitching if you move the mouse pointer too fast between items{F6324386}
there was a recent fix in the kwin morphingpopup effect that should have fixed it, i would say go for it
It was commit b257029afc3bfcd6366d2c2b910b8d91403ab8aa from plasma-framework
@ngraham what could you say about patch?
IMO what's seen in your screenshot is not useful behavior. If the full text fits in the regular UI, there's no need to show a tooltip; it's just redundant.
