(Kate 4.4.4 according to Gentoo Portage, but 3.4.5 according to Kate's own "About" dialog box.)

Sometimes during typing it suddenly starts typing backwards: characters appear on the right of the cursor and the rest of the line grows to the right; characters are typed right-to-left (backwards).

When it happens, I can move cursor to any other place and it still types backwards. The only way to restore normal typing is to close the file and reopen it again.

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce

Steps to Reproduce:
Happens very very often.
I haven't figured out yet precisely when does it happen and what causes it, but it often starts when I press Enter key and Kate auto-indents wrongly, then it switches to backward-typing. So it's probably somehow related to some bug in the auto-indentation.

Actual Results:  
Wrong autoindent (eg. too long, many tabs instead of one), and after this, typing backwards - characters appear on the right of the cursor, in backward order.

Expected Results:  
Not switching to backward-typing (some right-to-left mode?) unexpectedly.
