Note that I don't use geany much anymore so can't comment on the veracity of these changes.
Here are the notes from Wolfgang regarding the two bugs this fixes.
I made 2 changes to your geany-plugin Shiftcolumn, see the code attached.
-fixed a bug when one selects text from right to left and then shifts it (see comment "in case selection_start was after selection_end" in my code)
-When no text is selected, now the current word is exchanged with the next/previous, which I find quite useful.

This seems to already have been fixed by @b4n in dc0af51b96d4b98ada550d464b0cd17b24268419. I cannot reproduce any issue on selecting text from the right and shifting it. Works fine.
-When no text is selected, now the current word is exchanged with the next/previous, which I find quite useful.
IMHO this does not fit into this plugin. If someone needs it then a new PR to a different plugin where it fits in or a new plugin is welcome.
I vote for closing this un-merged. What do the others think?
Since it has conflicts and the plugin is orphaned and nobody has done anything for some years I'd say its fair enough to just close.
Closing due to previous comments.
Closed #317.
