Well, kdevelop uses "astyle" library to do the indentention. The stuff you
want is not configurable in astyle.

There is no "automatic, on-the-fly, super turbo" indenter in kate.

yes, I know.

You don't.

The solutions seam to be:
1. you improve astyle.
2. you implement 'on-the-fly' tab indentation on kate
3. you provide a "ktexteditor" interface to emacs (this will allow you to use 
emacs inside KDevelop)

So just choose one. :)
