KTextEditor is nowhere designed to be thread-safe. Even if this patch solves a particular issue you have in multithreaded access, we can be sure there will be other (corner?) cases where it won't work: Think only of modifying the text at some other place at the same time. It simply does not work right now. That said: Please always access KTextEditor API only from the main thread, and none else. -1 from my side.
