I'm happy to report I finally solved this issue on 10.14 by removing a bunch of older 4D versions. I had already reviewed the Info.plist files for conflicts and did not find any. But I had another computer with same macOS version and TextMate QL worked as expected. The only difference was a few much older versions of 4D.

That's the good news. Bad news is still no success getting it to work on 10.15. As reported by some others in another thread, everything that is public.source-code just shows as plain text. I noticed the "Extensions" panel in System Preferences has a section for Quick Look. Mine only shows Mail and Reminders. I don't see a way to  add an application there.
