Implementing KTextEditor interfaces in KDevelop

Yep ;)

Actually, even nowadays, with the current KateMDI, you can get a complete session restore
with remembering of all tool view positions with close to zero flicker,
which is quiet a feature ;)

But yes, that part of the API could have been changed, to allow to register a own widget
instead of having one created by the app as parent widget, still, that really is no big
problem I think, just slightly more ugly .)
