Very nice project!
I could see myself switch from kate if marave had syntax highlighting...

Not exactly trivial to do, but I'll take a look.

The beginnings of this feature are already in SVN as of r285.

It is a pain to enable, and the UI is not really done yet, but it does work:

In r290, if spellchecking is disabled, the right highlighter is used when opening a file.

In r292: Make the prefs UI follow the autoselection of highlighter on file opening

As of r293 this feature seems complete, except that when syntax highlighting is enabled 
the editor font is ignored.

Also, the color scheme is not saved in settings.

This issue seems complete, it just needs testing.

Very cool. Saw that you get started on the feature in your blog.
Unfortunately, the syntax highlighting drop-down menu doesn't work for me, yet...
