Otherwise, how can users define new languages without recompiling Emacs? I'd start building Emacs with that library, and figuring out how to interface it from Lisp for our purposes. Only after that I'd worry about making that a module and/or the ability to add languages. "The perfect is the enemy of the good", and many languages already have support files ready to be used.
