It might be worth mentioning that there is a FireBug extension that supports
it. I used to use it:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7575

I haven't actually applied the patch to try it locally. But the way I
understand it is that the syntax highlighting gets applied, on any size file,
without blocking the UI.  During this processing is the black+white text
available in the meantime?  The problem I would see here is a potential
"flicker" where there isn't highlighting and then boom there is.
