I asked about this on IRC, and now use the colour coding for regexes
out of the perl.xml file. There are some problems with ' and " in the
regex though. Also when putting #{} sections in the regex. But as a
basis, it is good.

		<!-- jEdit 4.1 adds regular expression syntax rules so we can
		     highlight this sort of crap. -->

		<SEQ_REGEXP TYPE="MARKUP"
                        HASH_CHAR="/"
                        AT_WORD_START="TRUE"
                >/[^[:blank:]]*?[^\\]/</SEQ_REGEXP>

There is other good stuff in there too.
