--- Comment #4 from matdubuisson <matteo.dubuisson at student.uclouvain.be> ---
I would be interested to do this if it's still possible this is what I proposed
on matrix :
I write the path of a file directly in the search bar it doesn't open the file
or display the current folder of the file ? Would it be interesting to
implement this feature when setting the path of a file, the file is open with
kate (1) the current directory of the file is shown (2) ? I would say for text
files solution (1) is preferable but for binary files solution (2) is
preferable. I have an idea text extensions as txt, cpp, js, csv, .... are
recognized and the file is open else the current path of the file is displayed
and it's the user to do something ? Could it be an idea or do you have an
advice or something better ?

What do you think ?
