Hey,
I have added a few more file types and the ability to choose whether or not to search with the detected file type. Check it out: https://gist.github.com/ChrisBuchholz/5557954

I usually end up with autocommands in my projects that will make 'filetype' look like qt5.cpp or rspec.rails.ruby, for finner control over snip engines and other things. I use Dash all the time, and thought this gists were really nice, so I put this together:

I intend to add those refinements to filetype/docset lookup shortly.
