Yes, of course, vim-dev is not restricted to C source development. > All this being said, I would certainly _prefer_ if this feature were a > built-in option rather than a vimscript plugin.

It seems as if I had a really old machine (from 2002). For me it's not usable for example in gvim, even if syntax highlighting is off.
