It is something I considered when I originally implemented the syntax
hiliting.  It got dropped in favor of a simpler, brute force approach.  Once
we get the GUI out the door, it is something that I would like to take a
look at again.  It would definitely fix lots of holes in the current syntax
hiliting.
