            Bug ID: 486308
           Summary: Render licenses in the default text editor.
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: kdeplasma-addons
           Version: 6.0.4
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Kate Sessions
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: 4wy78...@rokejulianlockhart.addy.io
                CC: alexander.loh...@gmx.de, cullm...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---
             Flags: performance+

SUMMARY
(Plasmoid) licenses should be rendered in the default text editor. This would
allow the line breaks to be handled properly without modifications, provide
line numbers, and allow myriad alternative improvements. Considering that
KParts aren't supported in Kirigami, this is the best way to not reinvent the
KWrite KPart for the current Kirigami overlay used to display licenses.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Open any plasmoid with an About page (which contains a license) like
Application Launcher and Kate Sessions.
2.  Invoke the link to the fake dialog overlay which displays the license.

OBSERVED RESULT
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=486305#c0 and
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=486304#c0 - the experience simply isn't as
good as if it were invoked in the default text editor.

EXPECTED RESULT
It should be invoked in the native text editor.
