[TxMt] Extending all language grammars?

Textmate's ability to write a new grammar which includes an existing
one is nice, but I'd like to do the opposite: make all existing
grammars include an extension...
I frequently use "structured comments", such as comments beginning
with "TODO:" to note bits of code that I've only stubbed out, or
"OPT:" for optimization opportunities. I'd like to be able to syntax-
highlight the most severe of these types of comments so that I always
notice these things as I'm scanning through a file.
I could just extend the grammar for each programming language with a
few new rules, but a much much better solution would be to add the
rules everywhere, such that anything within a "comment" scope and
which matched my rule got an additional "todo" scope.
Does Textmate already have a simple way to do this?
Is there a better approach to accomplish what I'm looking for?
