The idea is good. The sample looks terrible. Too much, too intense  
colours – where is the RegExp? Using a shy colour for [:<type>:] is a  
good choice: this syntax is too easy.

Would it work and be sensible to keep an unfinished expression, for  
example "[-_a-dg", in a reddish colour that then changes to something  
regular when correctly finished?
