Would it be possible to allow custom definition of comment and string characters in the syntax files, instead of hard-coding a set of predefined comments/strings, as it is now? E.g. Lua 5.1 allows the following multi-line comment styles: --[[ ... ]] --[=[ ... ]=] --[==[ ... ]==] etc., you can place as many = as you want between the [[. This allows to nest multi-line comments, which is quite useful to temporary disable (nested) sections of the code. The same syntax is used for multi-line strings, without the leading -- If comments/strings were configured with (several sets of) manually entered characters, it would be possible to have multi-line comments and strings in Lua.
