good point, i'll try to keep it in mind ;-)

that's interesting and sounds good. giving ZPT the `text.html.zpt`  
scope certainly enables all the nifty niceties of the HTML bundle,  
however, one thing i particularly miss now is the neat colouring of  
invalid/illegal XML.

that sounds interesting, but i'm really unsure, how to go about this.  
wouldn't the surrounding rule also need a name? if you could provide  
rough sketch of how that rule should look, that would be great.

alternatively, i could look at how the XML bundle implements the  
scoping of illegal xml and attempt to add it the html bundle (for  
XHTML).

thanks for your elaborate response, looking forward to more ;-)

cheers,
