The patch isn't working quite as I'd expect it. If syntax highlighting is
off when opening a file - it is not possible to switch it on (i.e.
see the file coloured after Ctrl + S) because the syntax rules are not
loaded yet. If this is the expected behaviour i.e. the patch honours
the syntax highlighting switch then I'd expect it not to change that
switch on editor exit i.e. if I close the editor with syntax off it should
not remember that.
