I follow that setting, but it's UI names isn't good, so I made a PR.
(I admit, I find the native's one horrible, it's kind of arbitrary change ^^).
But let the user choose is the best thing we can make happen !

Who requested that ? :D
Yes, I admit that let the user choose is the best thing to do.

Yesterday I made 2 Pull request :
For the decision of putting the color chooser in a plugin, unfornatly, I think it would be feel a kind od regression by the user.
We don't know why people like geany, this is why IMO " " "regression" " " is dangerous.
Thanks to all of you for your interest !
