Nope. I haven't done anything yet with Geany's plug-in system. Actually, I've been holding out hope that someone writes a Python plug-in for it -- similar to Jeff's nice Lua plug-in. Nothing against Lua, but I already know Python, and currently, the next extension language in my queue to learn is elisp.
Hmm, I am sure Lua is much faster to learn than elisp :-)
Ok, I like to see a emacs binding plugin, but I'm am not sure I'm able to make the needed changes myself.
I think that if there were an Emacs key-binding-compatibility plug-in, the goal should be to make it as authentic as possible. The "two key combinations" (that is, using prefix keys) is an important component of the bindings. They actually hierarchically organize commands quite nicely. Any anyway, if Geany were to have Emacs bindings, I'm guessing that the point would probably be to allow current Emacs users to easily move between Emacs and Geany (thus it would be beneficial to be as similar as possible).
And when that works vi have all the vi (vim) users that like the same :-)
This sounds to me like are reason to not implement plugin keybinding support ;-). Did I ever mention Geany is not emacs and vi? ;-)
