Kate has the Pipe to console menu item, which works either by sending
the whole buffer or by sending the highlighted region. You can assign
this a shortcut under the Settings Menu > Configure Shortcuts..., find
the relevant command, click the image of the keyboard key and add in a
keyboard short cut of your choosing. Make sure you don't overwrite
anything useful - I just tried this with Alt+R.

Now you can use (e.g.) Alt+R to pipe regions or the whole buffer to the
konsole running at the bottom of the screen. Just start R in the
embedded konsole first and it is read to be piped to.
Personally I use Emacs+ESS on my Fedora boxes, but I still can't
remember how to copy/paste all the time using Emacs commands... so not
the best person to be providing advice.
