Yes, I believe something like this will have to be done.

 From an old post:

>Guide Contrast [the color of non-page window]
>Custom Highlight Color: Primary, Secondary
>Highlight Insertion Point Line Color
>Source Code: Keywords, String Constants, Comments
>HTML Tags: General, Processing Instructions, Anchor, Image, Names, Values

Are these enough categories to go with? Is there some common/known 
taxonomy of code categories we can use? If we can settle on a scheme, 
bundle writers can touch up their work right away.

I like the fact that TM's color schemes are so customizable; but one 
wonders how much complexity a typical user will want. There should 
probably be some kind of scheme to install the color schemes of 
others...

And if one sets colors in a global stylesheet, how should one handle 
one language embedded in another? E.g. PHP/HTML or Perl/HTML?
