You can modify the syntax highlighting in kate, depending on what you're
editing, by going to tools, highlight, and selecting the particular type
of file that you wish.

I don't think that defaulting to a C/C++ method of highlighting is a bad
idea at all - one has to be picked, and it's never going to suit
everyone.  I don't think it's worth a bug report, as it's an intended
feature.

Of course, it may well be nice if it picked up which type of file it
was, and so set up the highlighting based on that, as vim does, but i
digress.
