Glad you said it first, I feel I have been too negative in the past
I didn't mean Geany's implementation is a mess, I meant if a plugin overrode the project support it would have to reimplement indent settings in a dialog.
two days ;-). I also don't understand why there are the "editor" options like maximal column width. This seems quite an arbitrary option taken from the preferences dialog. With such logic you could put almost anything from preferences into project. I would just remove it. (On the other hand I understand the indent options, they are definitely useful.)
It's useful to override some things which change from project to project, we think there should be more project override prefs but we haven't got around to it yet. The long line marker override was sent as a patch and it seems useful.
