I changed my mind again: I prefer the environment, even if it gets huge 
(see below).
The only problem is: the delimiters "\markup {" and "}" are not 
highlighted: "}" should be highlighted as cbracket and "\markup" same 
colour as markup_command.

There's a workaround?

# Markup commands (any \command inside \markup{})
environment markup delim '\\markup\s*\{' "}" multiline nested begin
   # definitions I want to preserve in this environment
   cbracket = $CBRACKET
   string delim "\"" "\"" multiline
   comment delim "%{" "%}" multiline nested
   comment start "%"
   scheme_value = $SCHEME_VALUE
   environment scheme delim '#\'?\(' ")" multiline nested begin
     environment scheme delim "(" ")" multiline nested begin
       include "url.lang"
     end
     environment string delim "\"" "\"" multiline begin
       include "url.lang"
     end
   end
   # actual definition
   markup_command = '\\[[:alpha:]-]+'

   # needed for nested blocks inside \markup{}
   environment markup delim "{" "}" multiline nested begin
     cbracket = $CBRACKET
     string delim "\"" "\"" multiline
     comment delim "%{" "%}" multiline nested
     comment start "%"
     scheme_value = $SCHEME_VALUE
     environment scheme delim '#\'?\(' ")" multiline nested begin
       environment scheme delim "(" ")" multiline nested begin
         include "url.lang"
       end
       environment string delim "\"" "\"" multiline begin
         include "url.lang"
       end
     end
     markup_command = '\\[[:alpha:]-]+'
   end
end
