Is there a reason you are using overlays here?

[olleicua]

I feel like it should be possible to do this without overlays by adding color classes to anything that matches span.syntax--bracket.. I'll dig in a bit more here..

[johngeorgewright]

That was my first idea... but not all syntax's are the same, and some don't differentiate between opening and closing brackets.

[olleicua]

I seems like we should be able to make our own syntax for this..

[johngeorgewright]

That's not a bad shout. I'm assuming, though, that you can't have multiple Languages assigned to one file. Can you extend others? Or would it best to approach the owners of current languages to add new classes to them?

[olleicua]

I would hope for the former.. the documentation is less good than I was hoping..
