I've already created a custom desktop file for private mode, it seems to behave
glitchy, for example if regular Firefox is pinned opening the private version
will be treated as a separate application. Using a shell script works well
though.

What I was thinking was if Firefox or a popular chromium based browser is
default the `--private-window` or `-incognito` flag could be set and if the
browser is unsupported the option would be hidden. Since there are only a few
popular browsers would this be possible?

The way that each browser implements private browsing is different, so I'm
afraid there is no generic way for us to do this. What each browser's
developers (or their distro packagers) could do however is ship multiple
desktop files with each browser: one would open in private browsing mode, and
the other would not. This would populate the browser list with those options,
and you could select that one. For that matter, you can accomplish this
yourself by creating an appropriate desktop file, or modifying the browser's
existing desktop file. You can use the kmenuedit app for this. But there's no
way for Plasma to do it for you, sorry. :)
