Frank,
I'm not sure if what I found provides an optimistic outlook, however,
you might find the following helpful:
See the questions:
Can I use different indenters for different files?
How can I get KatePart to autoindent XXX code?
at http://kate-editor.org/faq. KatePart is the text editing component
in Kate.
In the two answers, there are links to articles that provide additional
insight into implementing indentation functionality in Kate.
HTH,
Marc
