Been using kate forever and really like it.

How can I configure it to default to having no plugins enabled? I usually am very jealous about my desktop space and want the window to be as small as possible for my needs.

Some of the plugins are very nice, but I usually don't need them.

(No, I probably don't want to use kwrite because I do need tabs and other things that might be missing.)

i do use kate sessions which helps, but I don't want to have to define a separate session for everything I do just to get the default behavior I want.
