To me the root problem of your description is why kate
is not detecting the file type.
I have seen this often enough and is frustrating. Before submitting an enhancement
request, perhaps browse the code to learn how detection functions. Possibly an extra
if-then statement or equivalent is all that is needed to address some of these
shortcomings.
I believe the detection is by file extension (ran into this when adding WesnothML to the
list of available highlight types in an older version that didn't have it by
default--its
extension is also sometimes used by . . . I think it was QuakeScript).
