in the list; that would be my own top feature request. I think this is what Matt Cupp was asking for a few days ago. Antlr allows grammars to inherit from each other; this looks like a very nice feature, but I've never used it.

There's another idea for more language back-ends. Antlr has lots of back-ends, maintained by different people. However, the back-ends can be of low quality, and they're normally produced long after updates to the base code. I'm not saying that more language support is a bad idea, but I think you need to think carefully about how they're all going to be maintained.
