Are there any plans to broaden support for markdown syntax to include e.g. commonmark markdown? I have a particular interest in support for tables myself but expanded markdown support would be great.
I depends what you mean by "support", if you mean highlighting of markup that needs to be provided by Scintilla (www.scintilla.org) first so ask/provide a patch there first.
If there is some change that to the structure that the parser needs to support you can provide a patch/pull request on Geany (since the markdown parser isn't part of Universal Ctags). There are no known plans to change the existing parser, pull requests are welcome.
If you want the markdown plugin to support it, you will need to provide a patch/pull request to the markdown parser used by the plugin. There is a parser included in the plugin but IIUC the plugin defaults to libmarkdown if its available and I expect most distros use that, so you would need to get changes in that project. Alternatively you could change the embedded parser and force use of that when you built the plugin for yourself.
