python plugins

[Dominik Haumann]

What Alex wrote is correct. There is still ongoing work by Shaheed Haque
and Stefan Brüns to create Python bindings for KDE, who are CCed.

PS: I would not say the plugins will never be available in Kate 5. It all
boils down to someone doing the work...

Greetings
Dominik
