The reason to keep them sorted separately is if there is some reason why they should not choose one of those syntaxes. In this particular case it doesn't matter what they choose since they aren't losing out on any absolutely necessary functionality.

I didn't think I was doing anything controversial before either, so I'm not sure how controversial my plans are. Perhaps I should run them by the community before I implement anything new.

My only point was that if there isn't any reason anyone would intentionally want one or the other then why provide a obvious option as to confuse people? Need I really go find some nifty acronym to point to that says keep worthless options to a minimum? ;)

The only place I can see it mattering here is that Dreamer has complained how much slower the punctuation scopes have made pastes as it adds a lot of overhead to the HTML parser. Tab/space scopes could easily quadruple them.

There should probably be some sort of blacklist of scopes that aren't converted into html. All punctuation and whitespace scopes would be pretty useless converted to html I would think.

Where does the code for that sit? I may take a crack at it.

TextMate bundle, it's already been tackled by Scott Stevenson; but he hasn't submitted the code. But his post might be a good starting point.
