The parser identifies each one of these (except plain text) as different kinds. Additionally, it has chapter, section, subsection and subsubsection, but I guess these are only for navigation, so that the user can quickly jump to different parts of the document.

Yeah, I guess the programming language model of symbol types is being somewhat stretched here, but hey programming languages don't have free text in them either :)

Currently, geany is capable of omitting autocomplete inside strings and comments. So if plain text is treated as a string by this function, autocomplete would be disabled for it. Then it would be possible to remove \ from wordchars in editor.c as well as the LaTeX-specific portion to separate macros.

Sounds like a plan.

highlighting_is_string_style() does not currently have a latex section, so nothing should be relying on its behaviour, and so changing it should not break stuff.
