  boostbook has code for highlighting jam (I wrote it).
I'm assuming that there's some way to plug in our
own highlighter.

I'll have to check on that. 
 
  It's independent of the rewrite,
but it's something that I want to be implemented before
this goes live.

Sure. I'll go research what options we have on that. In an ideal world we could augment the default one it uses and push that upsream. As that way a bunch of other web contexts would get jam coloring.

OK, looked at the coloring.. Did the easiest attempt first. I implemented a jam language coloring for highlight.js. And used that as the coloring for the doc. And I did a partial tagging of the docs with the "[source,jam]" attribute. Please take a look at the updated docs.
