--- Comment #1 from Dominik Haumann  ---
This already improved: Only if END is a word with word boundaries, it is
highlighted.

In fact, this is a feature by design, called region markers that define code
folding regions:

# BEGIN asdf
...
# END

Here, BEGIN will start a code folding region that is ended with END. This is
similar to other conventions such as {{{ ... }}}. So this is not a classical
bug, but rather intended.

Therefore, I'll close for now as NOT-A-BUG.

The Kate developers certainly can discuss whether this feature is really
valuable - and if not, we can also remove it. But it's not possible to only
disable it for Bash, and even if we did, it would not help much, since this is
an issue with all highlighting files. The respective rules are in Alert.xml.
