I presume you got it to work outside comments by setting TODO as a keyword, but lexers don't ignore keywords in comments, strings etc, after all thats the language definition :-)
In fact AFAIK no lexer looks for any structure within a comment. A plugin would be "fighting" the lexer to style that bit of text so I doubt it would work.
