Or, just to offer a (potential) alternative--I believe you could incorporate a 
change like this into the (Scintilla) (native) lexer  for PHP and then it 
would become available to any editor that used the Scintilla text editing 
widgit (there are quite a few such editors).

I say this:
   * without really knowing what Joomla CMS PHP code is, but assuming the PHP 
lexer does the hightlighting (and, I assume there is a PHP lexer in Scintilla)
   * without really being sure--I've never successfully created or modified a 
scintilla lexer, native or otherwise, but know that a native lexer has to be 
written in C / C++ (and some other methods of writing a Scintilla lexer (like 
using Lua are not, iirc, supported by Geany)
