--- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <nate at kde.org> ---
Kate is perfectly consistent within its text editing view; home and end go to
the beginning of the current *line* not the whole document. This is the way
multi-line text areas work everywhere.

Konsole requires the use of the Shift modifier to avoid overriding keys that
terminal apps use. It's this way for everything. You have to add Shift onto the
beginning of any other shortcut you want to use that affects the view.

Seen that way, Okular might be the inconsistent one here. I assume requiring
Ctrl was done because losing your place by hitting Home or End accidentally was
annoying.
