Yes, it's still a thing in 5.4.1 which is only a few weeks/month old I believe.

To reproduce: go to an email that's sent from a mailing list and press the
default "R" key to reply, and you'll notice that the "From" field is populated
by the mailing list instead of the person who sent it ("A" which stands for
Reply All also does the exact same thing). The original email's Reply-To header
is set properly to the specific person's email address, so this is definitely a
KMail issue. At the moment you can achieve this by pressing "Shift+A" which is
bound as "Reply to Author". The argument of this ticket is that Reply action
means reply to sender, and there's a very specific header for that action
called (Reply-To).
