Sure I could do that and actually my version on my harddrive is watching the 
fileNameChanged() signal from Kate part and when emitted ->uploads the file. 
But for me it still is more like a workaround and workarounds always ends up 
in some sort of trouble.
The problem is that the part have its own action and slots thats merged in the 
GUI (of course ;) ) so even if I have my own slot the parts save/save as is 
called internally in the part. I could disconnect the parts methods and 
connect them to my own, but as I said it's a workaround. What I really would 
want is to make my own part inheriting KTextEditor::Editor(Kate) or something 
like  that. This inheritance should supply me with a working simple editor 
and I could just reimplement save/save as. This should give me full control. 
But maybe this isn't doable ? Isn't there an existing simple editor ready to 
use out of the box in the text editor interface ?
