First, my reply specifically targets kedit which has gone unmaintained for 
years.

Second, my reply is actually *in favor* of keeping kedit, because I doubt 
kwrite will provide bugfree bidi editing by KDE 4.0(1). 

Third, on applications being actively maintained, the maintainer has to be 
asked on all matters, certainly. In no way my reply was implying to deny him 
that.
