vscode-abap Syntax highlighting seems broken

I'm adding basic syntax highlighting for ABAP via your textmate lexer to Apache NetBeans. I figured out a problem with this example https://help.sap.com/doc/abapdocu_751_index_htm/7.51/en-us/abengame_2048_abexa.htm. It seems that the ending of a string is not correct, or maybe the example is wrong? The screenshot shows how it looks like. You can also test it in VS Code. It is the same problem.

As you an see at line 77 until the end, everything seems to be inside of the string. Sometimes inside of the string, not everything is captured as a string, but most of it. So I think this is not correct. If yes, please correct me :)

I'm planning to add https://code.visualstudio.com/api/language-extensions/semantic-highlight-guide via the abaplint extension sometime

despite some improvements to interpolated strings this is still broken

header = REDUCE string( ##NO_TEXT
      LET  w = 360 / n IN
      INIT h =
        `<html><head><style type="text/css">` &
        `.t0{background-color:#cbbdb0}` &
        `td{border:1px solid bbada0;color:#776e65` &
        `;text-align:center;vertical-align:center` &
        `;font-family:'Century Gothic',sans-serif;font-weight:bold` &&
        |;width:{ w }px;height:{ w }px;font-size:{ w / 2 }px\}|
      FOR i = 1 UNTIL i > 11
      NEXT h =
        |{ h }.t{ ipow( base = 2 exp = i ) }\{| &
        |background-color:#{ segment( val   = tile_colors
                                      index = i ) }| &
        |{ COND #( WHEN i >= 3  THEN `;color:#f9f6f2` ) }| &
        |{ COND #( WHEN i >= 10 THEN |;font-size:{ w / 4 }px|
                   WHEN i >= 7  THEN |;font-size:{ w / 3 }px| ) }\}| ).
    header = header &&  `div{text-align:center}</style><script type="text/javascript">` &
     `function okd(e)` &
     `{c=window.event.keyCode;window.location='sapevent:'+c;}` &
     `document.onkeydown = okd;</script></head> <body scroll=no ` &
     `style="background-color:#bbada0;color:white;font-size:20pt">`.

How to add custom highlighting for the "@" character in escaped host variables? I can't seem to find any way to make it work via the editor.tokenColorCustomizations section of the settings.json
