I did. But if there aren't any options to select the syntax editing mode,
you can use an approach like this:

: ${EDITOR:=emacs}

case $1 in
*.bash) FN=$1 MV=':' ;;
*)      FN=${1}.bash MV=mv ;;
esac

$MV "$1" "$FN"
$EDITOR "$FN"
$MV "$FN" "$1"

Wrap that in a script or function and assign it to FCEDIT. You could
also use ln and rm instead of mv, but this works. And test it; I didn't.
