Description mel 2014-08-13 13:33:44 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Kate
2. Set Settings->Editing->Indentation->Default indentation mode => "Normal"
3. Set Settings->Open/Save->Modes & Filetypes->Scripts/Python->Indentation Mode => "Use Default"
4. Then either:
4a. Open a python file for the first time (ie. one that isn't in the metainfos); or
4b. Create a new document (at which point the indentation mode is "Normal"), then save it with a .py extension

In either case, the indentation mode assigned to the file gets set to "Python", rather than the configured default; "Normal".

I experience this on my Debian Testing/Jessie install (with Kate 3.13.3), but have also tested and seen this same behaviour in a fresh Kubuntu 14.04 virtual machine (Kate 3.13.2).

Same issue as the other bug: that setting just doesn't work at all.
