As long as we're looking at the Gnome HIG and the CUA standards, it looks like most apps use Ctrl-D instead of Ctrl-M to deal with bookmarks. I think Ctrl-M is usually reserved for hopping between *m*atching bracket characters (parentheses, brackets, braces, angle brackets). If you went with that, you could possibly switch "Duplicate" to Shift-Alt-C (for *c*opy). This seems reasonable to me, since it's probably much more common to toggle bookmarks and toggle between matching brackets than duplicating selected text.
Oh please not.
Hehe. :)
Switching between matching braces is nice but at least I use it very rare. But I use duplicating lines/selection very very often and I assume I get pain in my fingers if we change Duplicate to Shift-Alt-C ;-).
Yes, I'm finding Duplicate quite helpful also, and maybe hitting Shift-Alt on my ergonomic keyboard is easier than on other more commonly-used keyboards.
By the way, I'm still rooting for seeing:

- Shift-Alt-L to select line
Shift-Alt-L is currently used a "Line Delete" by Scintilla, but I suggest to remove the Line Delete feature (because of probably rare usage) and use Shift-Alt-L for select line.
Actually, that's Shift-Ctrl-L to delete current line, not Shift-Alt-L (and Ctrl-L cuts the line). Deleting (or else cutting) the current line is very handy, IMO. Though I'm used to both GNU Emacs and GNU nano using Ctrl-K for it. Ctrl-L seems more like it should be "go to line number" (what Ctrl-J is currently being used for). And I think I've seen Ctrl-J used for "join lines" (that is, "replace the newline at the end of this current line with a single space").
Incidentally, I don't see "delete current line" (or "cut current line") listed in Help --> Keyboard shortcuts, or in Edit --> Preferences --> Keybindings. I guess those 2 places are only for Geany-specific (outside of Scintilla defaults) bindings?
- Shift-Alt-P to select paragraph
No problem, just needs to be implemented. Could paragraph defined in some way? To avoid further discussions (;-)) we should use a common way of defining a paragraph(start and end). Do you know what I mean?
I think paragraphs are separated by blank lines (space is allowed).
