Indeed. On that note, I'm happy to inform all Xfce users that the long standing bug with asking for unsaved files on logout was fixed. It doesn't seem like any dev noted, so I'll have to ring a few bells, and hopefully get it for the next release.
So I think we should keep Dimitars patch available for as long as he cares to maintain it so individual users can add it if they want, but the variability makes it inappropriate to commit to Geany.
Pretty much infinitely, Geany without sm would be a big downgrade to me. I'm not going to support the git branch though, and it's already out of date.
