Thanks Michael, worked a treat.

One question though: how do use the repository item in the main  
syntax, rather than repeating the pattern def again.

I've tried various combinations, but could only get this to work:

patterns = (
		{
			name = 'comment.block.html';
			begin = '<!---';
			end = '--->';
			patterns = ( { include = '#comment'; } );
		}, ...
		);

repository = {
		comment = {
			name = 'comment.block.html';
			begin = '<!---';
			end = '--->';
		};
	};
