It would be handy to have an "open all" command when the message tab shows the search results (with file names).
(Because, among others, there is no "replace all, in this directory (and below)", only "replace all, in opened files".)
Editing closed files is a good way to screw things up royally since you can't see what happened :) So it should not be added as a standard part of Geany. Those who know enough to want to change all files in the directory are probably also able to write scripts to do so.
I can manually add the extra "-l" option to grep, but maybe it is worth to add a "only file names" checkbox too.
You wouldn't need to do that, just ignore the line number in the message window. Opening from clicking on the line in the message window already checks if the file is open and just switches to it without re-opening.
Exactly where "open all files listed in the message window" menu item should go is debatable, but if a pull request was provided then that can be bikeshedded afterwards.
