You can edit existing sets of keywords, you just can't add your own ones.
By trial and error, I figured out, that it is useless to modify or extend the preset list of keywords, apparently a very rough subset of the Pascal.API list of Scite, according to
http://scite-interest.googlegroups.com/web/pascal.api
With Geany, standard constants, variables and types like Boolean, Integer etc. are missing. As well as standard functions and procedures.
As only one keyword set is supported, I don't think you want functions/procedures/variables highlighted the same as keywords, but maybe we could add the standard types. Do you want to make a patch?
Taking into account all the compiler-specific peculiarities, e.g. Delphi vs. FreePascal, is there any chance to see a forthcoming Geany version, that will support user-editable keyword lists?
This is already supported - see above.
If you want to request other keyword styles at the Scintilla project, go ahead.
