Sounds like a good plan. :-) At the moment, I think that what's in the mode is pretty solid, meaning I don't have anything planned to refine it further. (except for regexp syntax, which I don't know anything about) So, if you want to evaluate it now, that'd be great!
As a minor aside, I don't actually recursively parse S-expressions. It's not a bad idea, but jEdit's weird treatment of eager-vs-lazy matching sometimes gets in the way. Instead, I just define <SEQ TYPE="OPERATOR">(</SEQ> and <SEQ TYPE="OPERATOR">)</SEQ>. I don't really know when I'm in an S-exp, but I don't think that's too much of a limitation. The only exception to the above is my highlighting of "blah" in (def blah 123). That's done with an EOL_SPAN_REGEXP which delegates to a new ruleset. This ruleset then in turn delegates back to main in the case where the S-exp is closed prior to the end-of- line. It's not a normal idiom for jEdit highlighting modes, but it seems to work fine. At least I didn't have to resort to *really* bizarre tricks like I did in my SASyLF and ReST modes (opening a SPAN that terminates on an assumed non-existent character, etc).
