I would like to propose that we add a new repository to Github, similar to geany-themes, where we add any custom filetypes that are useful, but perhaps aren't up to par or popular enough to add to Geany proper. This would give a single place to get them all at once (via Git or Github Zip file download), and also a repo for packagers to use should they want to provide a package.

What do you think?
Why not, could be useful to some and have more semantic/visibility than the Wiki.
Tho, the Wiki filetypes also often comes with additional details, like the snippet for filetype_extensions.conf, or a (possibly useful) build script for Geany, comments, tips, etc. Maybe there should be some similar stuff in a repo with them then, maybe even an automated scritp capable of altering filetype_extensions.conf and alike?
Just a thought without huge reflecting: Couldn't this be done by a plugin? I mean, a plugin pulling from git repo filetype defintions and putting it into .config/geany and e.g. pasting snippets into snippets.conf.
