GUI mockup

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.4) 
OS:                Linux

Kate would look much slicker if some tweaks would be done to its GUI:

- make application menu optional: Dolphin already allows to hide the app menu with shortcut [CTRL]+[M] or with a toolbar button

- hide scrollbars: scrollbars should not be grayed out when not needed but disappear completely

Please have alook at my before/after mockup.

Reproducible: Didn't try



Expected Results:  
cleaner GUI
