This is exactly the reason why you are CCed explicitly here. I'm aware of the feature \
freeze and apologize for the too late submission request. But as I understand, \
kdelibs will be in feature freeze forever once 4.11 is released. So either we push \
this now, or only for KDE 5. And I would like to get feedback before KDE 5, as for  \
KDE 5 we are able to modify the API again.

The patch does not introduce any new i18n strings. The interface is completely \
documented. Further, the interface is implemented anyway in KatePart, meaning that if \
this patch is rejected, any application could just copy the .h file and still cast \
the KTextEditor::Document to KTextEditor::MessageInterface. This, however, is ugly. \
Instead of such hacky workarounds, I'm asking for an exception and inclusion of this \
patch in kdelibs master (upcoming 4.11 branch).

In KDE 4.11.0 itself, no application (except Kate Part itself) will use this \
interface. The risk of introducing regressions for 4.11.0 is minimal. And if \
regressions appear, I will fix them of course ;)

This interface exists in Kate since KDE 4.10, and is already used internally to show \

this interface to kdelibs, applications like KDevelop, Kile, etc... can use this \
