Yes, I have only minimal knowledge of kate but that sounds very
logical.

Exactly, but will the older TextEditor interface not be better have
tobe integrated into Kate::View and Kate::Document?

I dont think this would be that difficult to do, I have managed to do
this for kdevelop and I guess we could do it again for kate. I am
willing to help with this, if you help me making a Fortran highlighting
style and a special Fortran background for the editor window :-) 

No seriously, I dont think this is a big deal. The appropriate part of
the kdelibs could be backported to KDE-2.2.
