I am VERY new to kate..  Modular syntax highlighting seems very cool.  How 
about modular indentation/style rules to go with it?  Does this already 
exist?  How much estimated work would it be to do it.

When I say "style rules" I mean the sort of styles you can get  when using 
Emacs like 'c-set-style 'stroustrup for C++ etc.  Also I think the addition 
of a style rules engine will help get the "as you type" word wrapping worked 
on if its not being worked on already since I would want the style-engine to 
format the text dynamically anyway.

What do you think?  Is this too heavyweight an idea for Kate?  

If you like this idea I need some guidance as to where such code may need to 
be plugged into kate.
