My bad. It appears the bookmark discrepancy isn't between versions, but between caja and the file open dialog:

Thats something inside GTK2/3 that provide the open dialog, nothing we can control AFAIK.

As for themes, try installing pluma and gedit and opening them. Usually for me, if you haven't changed themes yet, you get very different looking UI themes, but maybe they have fixed this in later versions of Mint.

Well MATE is a fork of Gnome2, so it may have trouble setting themes for GTK3 apps since AFAIK its still written in GTK2. Cinnamon is a fork of Gnome3 so it knows about both GTK2 and GTK3.

PS I should have said "run both GTK2 and GTK3 versions of Geany"
