True, but... not really relevant. The original question deals with how kate should highlight this, ergo we need to know if the current behavior is intended. Using a syntax that doesn't confuse kate is a workaround, not a fix. (Also, if you'd read the bug report, you'd see I already suggested a work-around.)
