Yep, and I wasn't interested in multi instance either until I realised that it allows me to have Geany on multiple screens, I do lot of switching back and forth between .hpp and .cpp files so showing them both would be a *big* help.
How about a proper split edit plugin then? :)
Multi window editing is the "right" way to do it, but...
Unfortunately scintilla doesn't have a model view paradigm so you have to replay all changes if the same file is visible in two windows. Recent scintilla discussions were not encouraging on the effort required.
Also most of Geany isn't reentrant (eg much of it depends on a global view of current document, project, etc) so there will need to be changes to fix that and to support multiple projects.
But of course don't let that stop you :)
