Yes -- I noticed this already. For example in gnuplot, the "plot" keyword is 
missing.

Once we have the actual engine working (see review), I think various little 
changes can be done to the highlighting files which improve the overall 
result. What you suggested is certainly a good idea, but also some languages 
could be more explicit about what context they are in, limiting the amount of 
matches (if possible).
