I'm about to add a Bundle for Zope[1] to the Bundles repository and

`text.xml.zpt` to the scope of the snippets and commands of the
HTML bundle.
ZPT is the XML-based templating language Zope uses. Itself it
doesn't conform to HTML or XHTML so our syntax definition for it
extends the `text.xml` language. In order to use the many useful
HTML snippets though, we would need to add `text.xml.zpt` to their
scope.
Work with the scope system, not against it. ;)
ZPT isn't all that different from the many other template languages
Textmate supports, all of them use text.html.<lang> for the root
scope. Yes it might be that the template language can do other
things… but likely it's mostly for HTML no? We've got likely what 25+
html-ish template languages now, if each one got to add things to the
html bundle it'd be a mess.
If it absolutely can't be done any other way you could have two root
scopes (surround the whole grammar in a rule), but really I doubt
that's needed.
And of course I always sound negative when I hammer in the scope
system, which is not how I try to come off but. ;) Really great to
see new languages added to the repository so fast. Was amazing at
Macworld to look into the bundles directory and see 143 bundles, and
more added since then!
