Follow-up Comment #2, bug #6415 (project mc):

that's very unfortunate, because it makes mcedit a pretty bad editor for
sophisticated scrips.

i don't think this very hard to fix. i already did a simple parser that skips
over nested sh constructs. with recursive contexts (nested contexts need to be
color-neutral) writing a proper syntax file should be doable.
