You can insist, but if you don't either provide a patch or convince somebody to
implement it for you, this will stay as is.

The behavior was altered in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=436906

That Kate only opens this itself now was some side-effect perhaps nobody
thought about.

Perhaps you can ask the author of the patch nicely if he wants to improve on
it.
