You don't need that. There is already a standard interface for color
and style
configuration. Example:

\setupstartstop[CSnippetComment][color=blue]

So you can simplify t-pretty-c.mkiv:

\unprotect

\setupcolor[ema]

\definestartstop
[CSnippetName]
[\c!color=darkgoldenrod,
\c!style=]

I have not looked into the new verbatim code yet, but I have been
thinking about a similar interface for a new module that uses external
programs for syntax highlighting (sort of a superset of t-vim that will
allow one to use other programs like pgyments, etc.).

it all boils down hooking in a parser then:

\startluacode
local function parser(s)
  local s = somexternalthing(s)
  -- feedback s
end

visualizers.register("myparser", { parser = parser })
\stopluacode

\starttyping[option=myparser]
....
\stoptyping

Why are you using a C prefix for all environments? Isn't it better to
use a syntax like this:

\startsetups[verbatim:C]
\definestartstop[SnippetName][color=...,style=...]
\definestartstop[string][color=...,style=...]
....
\stopsetups

and then pass setups=verbatim:C to an appropriate \setup... command.
That will make it easy to share the same syntax highlighting between
different languages.

it's hard to come up with common names for characteristics for all those languages but at some point we can have a set predefined as default

btw, startstop can inherit (now):

\definestartstop
    [MetapostSnippet]
    [DefaultSnippet]

etc so there is no need for setups
