Definitely not OK, making one wonder what lurks deeper or elsewhere.

OK only as deep as you went.

You're not done looking. Until you get all the way to the bottom, you can't know
what else is wrong. You apparently need depth of at least 3 in the other hidden
directories, at least 4 in .config, and probabliy 4 or more in all.
Again:
chown -R 1000:1000 /home/kaj/
as root should fix them all. If it doesn't, chown would seem to be broken.
Maybe this in addition?
chown -R 1000:1000 /home/kaj/.*
Try MC in fullscreen mode. That way every listing you can see will display
ownership.
