I can't help wondering what would be the benefit of highlighting things like
\< and \w.  Highlighting \( and \| and \) can make sense since it helps
doing visual paren matching (tho I find blink-matching-open to work fairly
well in most cases, I can see that it sometimes gets confused and also it
currently doesn't understand the concept of the "matching open of an infix
operator").

Please leave \< and \w alone, thank you.
