--- Comment #2 from t...@my-place.org.uk ---
Just found this issue.

@Boris Petrov, the "none" option does turn the auto-indenting off, but the
setting doesn't "stick" so the next file you open it will be back on again,
keeping auto-indent off is a constant battle. So the menu option helps mitigate
this, but does not solve the problem. Even when indentation is off for a
specific file type in the settings, Kate sometimes inexplicably loads the file
with the indentation on.

It could just be the way I type/my brain works, but I find it really confusing
to have stuff I didn't type appear under my cursor. Also, the auto-completion,
indentation etc seems to get it wrong more often that it gets it right, so I'm
forever deleting and correcting what it does if I leave it on. 

The problem is that there are so many options in kate in so many places that
control these things it takes for ever to switch it all off for everything (eg
you can't switch auto-indent off for every file type with a single control) and
new settings always seem to creep in. So a single "WYTIWYG" mode that disables
everything that tries to add/correct/change what I type would be very very
appreciated.
