I think you want to look at font-lock-defaults.

Ah, I guess I misunderstood what kind of solutions you are looking
for, sorry.
If you want to keep font-lock in effect, then indeed jit-lock-register
is one feature to look at. But there are two others:
font-lock-extra-managed-props and the font-lock-face property. I hope
one of these will allow you to come up with a solution.
