source the file(s) with the new relation {filename pattern} -> {set filetyle=somethig)?

the string search patterns for syntax highlighting
are reloaded when the file is reloaded (on the same Vim session/run/instance).
Something like that for setting filetypes would be useful (for me at least).

this is the ftdetect/ file:
