Matthew has pointed out on IRC that the markers and indicators are per scintilla object, not global. He has a suggested alternative API which he will post after its tested.

What do people think about these options? Does anyone have any other ideas?
This was discussed before. At that time Lex was agains global resource mapping and wanted per-sci resource allocation instead. I will only repeat my suggestions:
1. Check how many resources we are using. If they are below the global limit or slighly above it, per-sci makes no sense.
2. If they are above the limit, check how much per-sci will improve the things. If it's less than, say, 15%, per-sci makes no sense.
3. If per-sci still seems reasonable, provide some logical to physical mapping, so that the plugins woudn't need to remember each allocated resource separately for each sci.
