patch

- would enable styling of cases like markdown huge headers
- could give performance improvement as a result of not having to break up lines in _findMatch() (let the native regex do this)
- would require modification to damage strategy, because it currently assumes that only the current line is affected when a match: pattern match becomes unmatched due to a model change

- patch is attached, includes a pattern in the js grammar for detection of a markdown huge header
