For that there is a teapot. Some can be continuously heated up, just through external heating methods, such as a candle!
Making tea in a kettle severely decreases life of the kettle and even after washing, some amounts of aroma compounds will remain, affecting the taste and aroma of whatever you boil water for next
I think we may have different definitions of a kettle. I mean something like this:
Which you put on the stove. I can't imagine that having tea in this is a problem at all. It's just glass.
I've also done this with something like:
Which I could imagine keeping more of the taste/being a problem.
I assume you mean something like this by a kettle?:
Yes, I mean an electric kettle indeed, the last one
No problem brewing tea in glass, that's how teapots work.
