They are, because you're making statements about things that you clearly are
not fully informed about. Thats trolling in my book.

> I want to change the colors for the syntax.

You can change some of the colors via kates syntax highlighting. This however
only affects what kates integrated syntaxhighlighting knows about.

Its not, kate's highlighting still works and still is done, KDevelop only adds
additional highlighting for C++ files and only C++ files.

> This is a bug.

No its not. Its a missing feature that you cannot change the additional syntax
colors that C++ support uses.

No it shouldn't, if kate has no way of knowing about things like uses of a
variable etc. (and it can't as thats beyond the scope of its 'parsing') then
it shouldn't have a syntax coloring option for it.

Right, but only for the additional stuff that C++ support adds.

>  And in that case, why have kate integrated into the IDE at all?

I guess you mean only kate's syntax highlighting, because not integrating kate
doesn't make the slightest sense at all. And as I said above kate's
syntax-highlighting still works and is even needed for anything besides C++.
