Derived Sir,
Is there a kind of tutorial or example I can shamelessly steal from that 
shows how to do a derived-mode?

By the way, I already rolled some 1100 lines of elisp and doc-strings, 
so I guess I'm a bit passed the derived-mode station. So I'll figure out 
the requirements for fill-paragraph for javadoc and build my own. That 
way I might learn a bit more about lisp.

And yes, I used the Source, Luke ;-)

TIA,

Arjan
