That is ok for many things but will not help Kate. E.g. the build plugin wants
to run exactly the cmake/compiler the user has in its path, not the flatpak sdk
compiler, that will just break your local compiles.

Same for LSP, we need access to the user environment, not some other variants.

The integrated terminal and external tools only make sense with proper shell
access to the user & system environment, too.

If somebody does that, perfect, but at the moment I think the only reasonable
solution is to only package e.g. kwrite but not kate for flatpak.

If somebody provides maintainable patches to get this all working, one can
still package it again.
