Quite some time ago we talked with Stefan about supporting certain
complex language features, and kind of agreed that we could use a new
way to specify syntax, something to supersede syntax-propertize-function
(and maybe font-lock).
Tree-Sitter could be an example of how such new grammars could be
structured, but I think we'd need that implemented in Lisp. Not in a
foreign library that we import through modules mechanism.
