It's acceptable, but you should rather ask development question on the
devel(a)lists.geany.org mailing list (that I just CC'd), so any developer
can see, answer and comment ;)

As I think Lex already mentioned on IRC, we already have means to hide
some extra elements, they just aren't triggered when entering fullscreen.
But anyway, the way to go is to extend ui_utils.c function
ui_set_fullscreen() to do any additional job needed.
Also, such behavior needs to be configurable -- you find that entering
fullscreen should hide other stuff, but not everyone might agree, so it
should be a setting.
For example, even if I understand you might try to get more screen space
for the editor component, I for myself don't think it's really any tied
to whether it's fullscreen or not. But OTOH, I have a 22" screen, so…
Best regards,
