That looks interesting. Using jQuery in my opinion is a feature - it reduces overall code bloat (DRY) - and integration is easier, since common jQuery idioms are used. jQuery.Syntax is also highly modular - only the syntax definitions and stylesheets required are loaded. If there is nothing on your page, only a bare minimum (2) scripts are loaded. These scripts are deliberately as short as possible, so that load time is fast.
