Description 318bcb 2025-06-24 19:56:36 UTC 
SUMMARY
Sagemath is a superlanguage of Python, and uses `.sage` extensions.  By default, Kate does not use any syntax highlighting for Sage files, but it should use Python syntax.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a `.sage` source file.

OBSERVED RESULT
Kate does not use any syntax highlighting.

EXPECTED RESULT
Since Sage is a superlanguage of Python, it makes the most sense to use Python highlighting by default.
