I agree, we should do this.
opening a project automatically closes all files from outside the the project, if the file was loaded previously to the project. After closing the project, these file got loaded again.
Now I load the project first, and than the "other file". After
closing the project, the "other file" is closed too. This is also the case, if Geany is closed with the project and the "other file" open. After the new start, all files are open. But again, closing the project will close the "other file" too!
Is this a bug?
It was done like this to make implementing the session support easier, but maybe it could be made a preference whether to distinguish between files under the project tree and files outside it.
Sometimes you might want a file from some other API to be stored in the project session.
But now the notes on the project management.

All files from outside these projects can be automatically added to an "virtual" project 'unmanaged'. So the user can fast toggle between a project and the "other" files.
Maybe this could be part of the grouping in the Documents sidebar tab (probably this will be delayed if the folder tree is being implemented).

- one last thing for now ;-) My old Laptop has a screen resolution of 1024x768. It would be great to have icons instead of text as lables
for the tabs of the sidebar.
I think we need text labels for clarity. You can still scroll the sidebar notebook.
