Hi.

I'm supportive of your project.  I think it is great to see some
advances in this area in the core.

I'm curious how you plan to extend your approach to handle syntax-ppss
as well.  It seems to me that the sub-mode has to be able to change the
syntax table at the mode boundaries; and furthermore that this also has
to be done during font-lock so that syntactic font-locking works
correctly in all the parts of the buffer.

If you already discussed this and I missed it, let me know and I can go
search the archives.  I don't remember seeing any mention of it, so I
thought I'd ask.
