Support for extends in syntaxes

[azuledu]

¿Is it possible to extend an existing syntax?

I tried to extend Markdown syntax creating a file inside ~/.config/bat/syntaxes with the content:

%YAML 1.2
---
name: MyMarkdown
file_extensions: [md]
scope: text.html.markdown

extends: Packages/Markdown/Markdown.sublime-syntax

contexts:
  main:....

but it seems that the extends tag is not working.
¿Any clue?

Thanks.

Hi, unfortunately this is currently not supported upstream in the syntax highlighting library bat uses: trishume/syntect#323
